On the Green Front I am not sure if Global Warming is caused by man or is a cycle of nature, but there is no denying that every year it gets hotter and hotter. I found the following article on CNN and thought that it was interesting enough to share.

On the Crochet/Knit Front For those of you on Ravelry, join the Ravelympics. The rules are that you have to cast on during the opening ceremonies of the Beijing Olympics, and you have to be finished with your creation by the time the flame is extinguished. I am in the Sock Put Event and I am going to complete the Cookie A Twinkle Toes Socks, see link to pattern.

I am going to make them out of some wonderful yarn that should be on its way, I hope, to me from WEBS yarn store, www.yarn.com , see link below. It is similar to the Daffodil color way on this page.
