What's On My Hooks, Needles, and Spindles:
Not yet finished:
The OHM Shawl by Michelle Miller



 Yes, I did do a slight redesign to the first chart.

Finished:
The Boneyard Shawl --not yet blocked:

Still in Progress:

Bears for the Mother Bear Project--my 13 bears in 2013 project continues with Bears 30-32.

Dizzy Blondes:
I continue spinning the 12 oz of the fiber dyed for the last CFR by Desert Vista Dyeworks....

Strategy:
Be the victim or be the hero: In the end, it is always going to be your own choice.

Put a Lid On It:

 Nothing cooking right now.

Something I Really Like:

Star Trek: Into Darkness

Blather:

CFR news, as always.
