I finished my mom’s Mother’s Day gift just in time. I crocheted a table runner for her. The inspiration for this project came to me after I picked up Berroco’s 
NaturLin #273 the other day. I had to pick up this pattern book for it’s yummy throw. While at the yarn shop I fell in love with Berroco’s NaturLin. This yarn is a linen and rayon blend that is very luxurious. The yarn highlighted the stitches beautifully and was wonderful to work with.
On a humorous note I have to share the outfit 
my husband picked out to wear for Mother’s Day brunch. He came downstairs and asked me if this outfit “worked”. My uncontrollable laughter immediately let him know the answer was a resounding NO. While the photo doesn’t show it…the colors of the shirt and shorts do match. What is it with men and plaids? Don’t worry he changed outfits and was presentable for our Mother’s Day brunch. Here’s hopping everyone else had a great Mother’s Day too.

I have had joining a sock club on my wish list for several months now. Well, last Saturday I went and did it. I joined the sock club at the Boucle Yarn Studio here in Fargo ND. They have a great mini-club that only has three socks a year. This perfect for me. I have so many projects going on that a pair of socks a month is a little out of my league right now.
For the sock club kits Boucle has a company called the Unique Sheep custom dye their yarn. This month’s yarn was dyed from a picture of the flood waters and the lace 
pattern is reminiscent of waves. What a great tribute to our recent flood fight. Here’s a photo from one of the clubbers who is fast as lightning knitting up their socks. I have yet to cast on. However, I have hardly been able to keep myself away from my kit. At the moment I am working on a gift for my mom. Mother’s Day really snuck up on me this year! I don’t know how…anyway, I am burning the midnight oil to get Mom’s gift done in time. Just as soon as I get the gift done and paint that corner of the kitchen, I am jumping head first into my sock kit. The soon I get at those projects the soon I can get to my socks…I’m off
