before. after: I know, my “before” and “after photos are backwards. The truth is that I still have a lot to learn with knitting “in the round” which was what I attempted to do here with this cocoon. The back of it was full of holes, so I took the whole thing apart. Now I...

my new ring
It’s so pretty, I had to photograph it. There is a little story behind the ring, or I wouldn’t bring it up. So…here we go…it’s a Lucky Brand ring. I visit the Lucky Brand jewelry pretty often at the department store that I pass six times a day, five days a week. (It’s called Belk....
{history}
I found a stream of photos on flickr from the Library of Congress that intrigued me so much that I had to share them here. I am highlighting two that really stuck with me for different reasons entirely. First, I want to say how much I admire the work of photographers that documented such times...
