Vintage for me...

 I  like this antique vase so much.  From a thrift store of course! And the crocheted doily with the pansy edging.  I used to crochet all kinds of pretty doilies way back when I was in my 20's.  Then, later on I learned to tat, and that was a real challenge at first, but so dainty and pretty. Somewhere in there, I took classes in basket weaving and made some baskets. Later,  I fell in love with spinning wool from whole fleeces, which I (oh how wonderful the lanolin feels on your hands of the unwashed wool, after you cut off the nasty bits) washed and combed or carded.  Mom once said....'never pass up the chance to learn something new'. So......= )

My walnut afghan now has three rows of 'walnuts' instead of two.  I am listening to the audio book (Audible.com) by Drew and Jonathon Scott  'It Takes Two'  (of Property Brothers) while I crochet.  It is interesting, and occupies my mind while the Walnut Afghan keeps growing, slow and steady.   I am also re-reading 'The Colonel's Lady' by Laura Frantz. (it is very good!) I just finished 'The Lacemaker' by Laura Frantz  and it was a wonderful read.
