dreaming of blue sheep More blue sheep! In honor of my blue knitting blog, Inga from Hamburg sent me this terrific picture of an art installation she saw at a garden show.
I love it! These little guys are definitely finding a permanent home here at the blue blog. For now I'm letting them graze in the title banner and on a new button. What d'ya think? posted by alison at 8:53 am | in

Posted by: Leigh at November 13, 2003 2:16 PMhey - knitsmiths - isn't that you - http://www.boston.com/news/globe/living/calendar/articles/2003/11/13/knitting_factories/ Posted by: carolyn at November 13, 2003 2:24 PMBlue sheep! Perfect, if only they came that way...sigh... Posted by: Silvia at November 13, 2003 2:50 PMSo glad you all like the sheep! I'm definitely keeping them around. They make me happy. And I'm also happy that so many of you are joining the gift-along. You've inspired me to cast on for my first giftie tonight! Carolyn, yes that's a Boston Globe article about hip, young knitters in Boston which mentions the Knitsmiths. The author visited the group several times and is learning to knit! The print article has a list of many online resources including knitty, knitters review, Martha's list of Boston area stores, and the blue blog. :) Posted by: alison at November 13, 2003 5:14 PMMust add that I do, in fact, know how to spell "dyed". My only exscuse for typing "died" is being Mom to a 2 year old Posted by: Jackie at November 13, 2003 7:55 PMCuuuuute blue sheep. They go perfectly in your banner!
