Fly away home
Ladybug! Ladybug!
Fly away home.
Your house is on fire. And your children all gone.
All except one,And that’s little Ann,
For she crept under
The frying pan
In keeping with the Seinfeld back in time episode, and, as I promised in yesterday’s post, I continue my trip going back in time. Earlier this week (Monday, Sept. 21) I received Woolgirl’s sock club August kit (it was late and we only got it in September). So, this is a SPOILER kids, look away now if you want to keep it a surprise:
Okay….it was the spoiler button, so one more chance to look away before I show the contents of the kit……….
August/September’s theme is ladybugs, or “love bugs” as Jen of Woolgirl calls the sock pattern. Cool, huh? That plastic ball thingy is a 7″ fibersphere….To keep yarn in and out of the dust. I’m using it right now with an earflap hat project.
Here is what was inside the hamster ball fibersphere:
Yowza! A whole bunch of ladybug swag!
1 skein of Miss Babs Yummy fingering weight in the Ladybug colourway.

The pic doesn’t do the colour justice..I can’t wait to knit up these socks!
So, Wednesday I got back to blogging - Tuesday I finished the Primaveras and went to a new knitting guild meeting, and Monday, I received the ladybug kit…Next post I’ll continue my trek back into time….
As the ladybugs fly away home, I, too am signing off now with a few pics of some of the last of our summer flowers….
