i am not superstitious
but the radio news reporter said that most people are
yesterday i was starting to wonder when the gas pump wouldn't give back my credit card
but after work
things were on the lucky side
lovely thrift store finds
cashmere for blankies, handmade liberty of london dress, beautiful wool baby blankies
and a huge box of honeybell oranges from florida
a thoughtful gift from my brother and his wife

i adore the inside of my latest knitting project

I had a wonderful lucky 13 day too
love the softness of your pile of goodies
that knitting project is stunning - is it hard to do?
the cold today made me think about our trip - I'm super excited.
can't wait!

Sounds like a lucky day! I'm intrigued by your knitting project. The pattern is beautiful, but it looks difficult! What are you making?

It is not at all difficult if you have any experience with kitting with more that one color. (fair isle knitting)

You certainly have been finding treasures. That must be a special thrift store. That knitting project made me think of Arounna's patterns. I'm not surprised she likes it. :)

lovely knitting pattern. I haven't tried anything with colors at the same time. I hope to create something like this. Love it!

It's obvious you are NOT going to need any knitting lessons from me! Beautiful stuff. I'm happy to hear your Friday the 13th was so lucky.

You did have a lucky day finding all those wools bits and the dress, as well as getting the oranges.
Whatever you're knitting, looks like it will be warm with the 2 layers.

Wow those are wonderful finds! And that knitting, amazing :)
You deserve such good luck, you spread so much good cheer.

Oo-ooo, love the liberty fabric!
If I'm not too late for a blue word or two...White.(can't seem to think of blue with out white)Smart, as in blazers. Getting the right blue is DIFFICULT but when you do, it's PERFECT.
Great opportunity, thanks Margaret, to think in Blue.

I love the inside of stranded knitting too. It's like a secret pattern that only us knitters will see 8)
