Life is just a bowl of cherries
So live and laugh,
Laugh and love
Live and laugh at it all!

In the beginning...


was the cherry tree

which bloomed and brought forth...






the cherry

which inspired...










the pattern

which needed a suitable yarn to dance with...






(Pay attention boys and girls, cause this is where it gets interesting.)

A comely lass named Chris answered my plea with...



two big cherry bombs
(Grandma's Blessing)

which turned into...





several juicy yarn cakes

which knit up into...







a pretty good start

which looks like...






this!

(when it has room to stretch out)

Introducing: the Cherry Country Shawl (coming soon to a fiber festival near YOU!)

because...

the story doesn't end there. Oh no! The beauteous and talented Chris will be selling said pattern upon its completion (as soon as my cramped little fingers can churn it out.)

And that, my friends is why...

Life is just a bowl of cherries

And no pits.
