Last weekend my dad turned 80. A wonderful celebration, a lot of relatives and friends (of my parents) that I have not seen in years and I wonder if I will ever see them again. Something I need to think about some more.
I am working on a blanket using stash. What do you think?
Finally the sky is blue again, even the sun came out and I am so grateful. We had family over for dinner, ate what probably all of you had or will have today and – again – I am thankful. M and J, the house, my parents and sisters – counting my blessings sometimes takes my breath away.
Scarf made of stash – violet, turquois, beige, green, anything from sock yarn to bulky – knitted lengthwise with the biggest needles I could find; no weaving in of ends – they became fringes.

It is still foggy and grey outside. I don’t remember seeing the sun for at least a week and J insisted that the little people get dressed. It’s too cold to run around naked. Well, here they are: Albertha (to the right), the first doll with a name and her friend. J named her after his two favorite teams, Alba Berlin (basketball) and Hertha BSC (soccer). „Two souls, alas, are housed within his breast and each will wrestle for the mastery there.“ Thank you J. W. von Goethe – I could not have said it any better.
