Knit Like the Wind Dorothy

So much has transpired this Fall. I believe this quote " You can't truly have an open heart until it has been broken."



"Life me Up"



~





And ALWAYS Knit like the wind, it will save your life!










~



In deepest depression, there is always love.

~



And back to reality, I WANT this knitting bag!


I discovered this on a site I am truly addicted to, Tumblr. You can find me @ Knittinginthered!



~


Now I bring you, the process of "Aeolian"



Must have a good soak first!



~


This is a Wedding Shawl I made for my niece Chyna. It is one of the most beautiful things I have ever made. I blocked it after soaking, turned off the lights and took a picture. The beads just sparkle through and through.




~

This is a true keepsake to be passed down to her future children (;


I do hope she cherishes it!


~


Aeolian in all it's beauty!




~


This is your something new.


In each stitch, I thought and dreamed of what a wonderful life you and Mike will have. The many happy memories you shall make. The warm and loving home you shall have. You are blessed to have found such a great love. My little girl who I used to watch sleep, has grown into a wonderful, beautiful and amazing woman. There are no greater words to say but to give you all of my love. In this shawl, there were many tears, many hours, many thoughts. The lace flew through my fingers like soft silk, the beads were like diamonds placed from my heart. This shawl is a work of love. For I love you with all my heart and I wish you many years of happiness. There's no doubt you deserve it. I love you Chyna Doll. Many kisses and hugs.
