These stitch markers are from the Ravelry group, The Story of the Traveling Stitch Markers. The group was begun and the pretty markers made by Heather. She has sent out markers to every state in the U.S., plus some to Canada. The idea is similar to the Flat Stanley story - they travel around with you and then you write an entry about some adventure they shared while in your care. So here's mine.....not very exciting, but still here it is none-the-less!
The markers attended two church services with me - one on Good Friday and the second on Easter Sunday. Then we went off to Williamsburg and Busch Gardens where the markers hung out with me at an LYS called The Knitting Sisters. We had a great time visiting with the local knitters - they even invited me to have lunch with them!
The next day, the markers traveled to Virginia Beach where I forgot to take a photo of them on the beach - too bad for me!
I'm not going to be able to finish my clapotis project with them, so I'm ready to send them on to another part of the state - so be on the look out! You might be NEXT!
...a blog about the challenges of finding time to knit and take care of all the rest!

Stormy Waters
One of my most recent projects is the Storm Water Scarf done in Sea Silk. in pumpkin. The pattern is fairly simple lace. I'm hoping to finish by next Sunday so I can wear it at my concert. While we were on vacation I bought beads to attach to the end points - once it's blocked! Maybe I actually like this one!
