SPIN, KNIT AND LIFE







Hello and welcome to my blog about nature, travel, cooking and my journey through life. I am just starting a new adventure in photography. I hope you enjoy my photographs.

Blog Changes

Most of you know that I have another blog, Spin Knit and Life Fibercrafts, that pertains to my adventures in spinning, weaving, knitting, and other textile/fiber/yarn hobbies.
I am in the process of moving my favorite fiber art links, pictures, etc. to that blog. So if you are looking for something on this blog and can't find it you might want to visit the other blog.

Winter Wonderland

Sadly, I think it is time to say goodbye to our beautiful winter wonderland.  They say this snow was the third largest to every hit this area.  I believe them.  The interesting thing is that it has lingered for so long.  Our temperatures have remained below freezing until the last couple of days.  I'm serious when I say that it will probably be another decade before we see another snow like this.  I have never seen so many snowmen, snow women,snow statues in my entire life.  Growing up in Kentucky snow was a common occurrence in the winter months.  I think I made one or two snowmen during my childhood and then it become "old hat".  Down here everyone wanted to take advantage of this snow and build, build build.  The nice thing about snow is that it makes for great photo opps.









DH captured this snow unicorn during the very early hours of his morning walk.



I know this photo belongs on my fibercrafts blog.  I just couldn't resist ,the blue looked so pretty on the snowy white background.









I miss it already.
Enjoy life,
Phyllis

Love all those snowy photos Phyllis. Especially as I am tucked up in a warm room with my computer...haha. I love the prints in the snow and your blue knitting looks stunning with a white background. Glad everyone made the most of the weather. Ours has gone, gone, gone and we don't know if it will return this winter.

Love the photos! I'm enjoying the winter, usually we have so much rain and clouds, at least snow is bright.
Love the blue socks? I think they are socks. The flower photos make me ready for spring.
I have to get spinning, my fiber stash is alarming!

About Me

My Photo
I love fiber crafts. I started knitting in 2000 and spinning in 2003.I love spinning on a wheel and a drop spindle. I have a fiber shop on Etsy that features my handspun yarns and Luscious Ditty batts. I have recently added weaving and photography to my agenda. I moved to Alabama in 1992. I live in Alabama but my heart belongs to Kentucky. I have just recently acquired an interest in weaving and love it. Let's see where that takes us.
