Re knitting - I love knitting accessories, fingerless mitts are my favourite, scarves, cowls, hats, and lace shawls which are a lot harder but I love. I've also subscribed to a knit an afghan club and every month I get the yarn and patterns for 3 new stitches to make 3 blocks which will eventually be knit together to make an afghan. I love using multicoloured yarn, and really bright colours, it just makes me feel happy.

On the harp, I'm kind of starting over at the beginning at the moment, focussing on technique until I build up some strength in my fingers. My favourite music to play is celtic and Latin American. They're very different from each other, but I like the challenge of the different styles. I'm lucky, I have a great teacher, who is only charging me a tiny portion of her normal fee, for lessons.

When is your year? OMG!! That's HUGE! Congratulations!!! I have an anniversary coming up next month; I can appreciate the work it takes to stop using.

Ohhhhhhh, LACE!! I have seen some knitted and crocheted lace. It makes me drool!

Latin music on the harp? Which styles, please? Can't say I have heard Latin music on a harp!! Your teacher sounds like a dream too. Well, I am headed to youtube to search for Latin music on the harp! I am serious! I am not making fun of you, I am curious now!! xoxoxoxox
