TOP 19 warm and delicious from 2011


2011 has been a year of embracing the gentle arts of the home, particularly knitting!
The pace has seemed to pick up around me, so small things like late night knitting, mineral springs and the discovery of people who also like to do things the slow way have been my delights this year, as well as, of course, my small wee people, a couple of whom are becoming not so wee anymore!
This year has been about bringing people together to create...music, knitted things, inner peace!!!
Here is a small top 19 list!
I was aiming for 101, but I have some last minute stitching to do for 2011!

2: hannah haworth knitter/artist
3: selvedge magazine
4: ravelry
5: madelinetosh pashmina
6: orphfund
7: kate davies : scottish designer and mountaineer
8: anouar brahem, musician
9: william steig's "dominic"
10: sufjan steven's "sister winter"

12: anna branford and her small made things and her growing writerliness
13: soulemama , as if I need to say it!
14: Channa, my newly discovered teacher and neighbour!

Wishing all beings in the universe, seen and unseen, and even those not yet imagined by us, PEACE!!
