By our own hands and decisions ...
Whatever you do,
put forth your best effort even if
all you're doing is chasing a never ending rainbow.
You might never reach the end of it,
but along the way you'll meet people
who will mean the world to you and
make memories that will keep you warm
on even the coldest nights"
— Sherrilyn Kenyon (Acheron)
A year has passed...
and therein lies our future...
decisions will be made...
and right or wrong..
we will grow,
hopefully and learn as the days push
forward in this band new year~
magnolia days have come and gone..
and will come again..
but until then..
we may feel like we are chasing
a never ending rainbow...
but then again..
the rainbow just may find us...
a rainbow of color..
something to keep us warm..
as we make memories.....
in the snow..
in the cold...
in the long winter days ahead..
I have met many beautiful people along the way...
YOU..you are all beautiful people...
and for one of them,
Camilla..
I have designed this Ear Warmer..
The Magnolia Ear Warmer for her beautiful
line of rainbow like handspuns
And I am offering the pattern to you all..
a gift for the New Year..
something to make by your own hands..
and something that will keep you warm..
on even the coldest night...
and hopefully you will dream of magnolias~
a wish for a beautiful 2011 to you all...
reaching out to you...
and asking a bit of forgiveness...
for my lengthy absence..
and hoping to visit you all soon~

So beautiful ~ and very useful too!
As a child everyday when we left home for school my mother would call out "DYB" Do your best - you can't do more and you shouldn't do less.
Your post reminded me of that. xxo
my heart just fell in love with that yarn. pink isn't even my color, but oh how i love that yarn.
There are many, many uplifting a beautiful thoughts in this post, T.
Thank you so much, and best wishes to you for 2011. Each day of this year can bring so much to each of us
i agree with beth - that yarn is stunning and i'm not a pink person either. but it is like the delicate petals of that dogwood blossom. stunning.
Happy New Year T! These are beautiful shots and the yarn is absolutely gorgeous! Wait until I show you what I created with my Magnolia yarn...!
This is so lovely! I really like the idea of it being lined with the fur.
I already have the yarn and so this is next on my list of things to do.
Your blog is so inspiring, as always. You obviously always do your best. I appreciate this!
A beautiful and inspiring poetic post...missed your post T!

Wish I could knit to make one of these beautiful gifts that you created...Who knows,maybe this year I can learn to knit?
