I went to a wedding last night. It was the perfect Oregon wedding set high in the Hillsboro hills at a beautiful vineyard. The day was just the right blend of clouding sunny warmth and a cool June evening.
I wore a sleeveless burnt orange tunic top over light weight summer white pants and brought a bag stuffed with camera, video, plenty of tissue and a beautiful garden green gold speckled shawl I knit stuffed in the top of the bag.
It wasn't quite cool enough to wear my shawl so I hadn't pulled it out of the bag yet. I approached a table of friends to say hello....."hi Laurie Ann, did you bring your knitting?" I smiled, laughed a little and said, " No but I have the results of my knitting!"
And with much pleasure and pride I pulled my hand made one-of-a-kind shawl out of my bag and wrapped it around my friends shoulders.
"mmmmm lovely" she said " I think I want to learn to knit!"
