Allen West is my hero.

This man would make an excellent President of the United States.

Retired Marine, and now serving in Congress representing Florida. Please watch this. He loves America. http://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2012/05/30/allen_west_lets_talk_about_president_obama_doing_blow

Finally, some sun today. The yarn does not dry well in the house.

A closer look!

♥Rinsing the Yarn I Dyed Yesterday

Knitting a pair of Barn Mittens

Here I am just working on the bottom ribbing. Leave me a comment if you want me to write this pattern for you.
I love to knit this type of mitten.  They are big and comfy and everybody loves them. You call them 'Barn Mittens' because they are the type that you can use and do heavy work in the cold and the wool keeps your hands happy even if they get wet.  Just hang them to dry and you are good to go again.

I am going to dye these in rainbow shades AFTER I knit them because the blend of the colors of the rainbow are so beautiful and instantly make you happy.

I love to handpaint my handspun yarn.  Anyone can do it and it is so much fun.
