Mollie makes magazine and Malabrigo Rasta yarn

Oh so excited that I managed to get back orders on Mollie makes magazine. Have you all browsed through one of these delicious magazines yet??? Its a crafters feast! Have you ever found a magazine where absolutely every page holds your interest..Well, Mollie makes does. It truly is my kinda mag..My plans today are to sit at my bedroom window, sipping tea from my robbin mug, watching my garden and feeling the Sun on my back. Straight after that, its back to around the house chores~ Another exciting arrival this week was my stash of Malabrigo Rasta yarn. I know I am full of praise today but this truly is such wonderful super bulky yarn. Winter has not yet raised its head in my part of the world but when it does, I am sure going to throw this yarn at it. I have projects lined up and ones I am busy with and quite frankly, I am over loaded with knitting projects. If you have ever gone searching for this yarn on the net and wondered if the vibrant colors are those exact ones, THEY ARE! I was thrilled with the colors. The green, mauves, yellows and blues are 416 Indiecita and the Rust, mauve,purple, musk, greens, yellow and browns are 862 Piedras. We're all happy Down in the meadow. We harvested some bananas today too. Sweet wholesome bananas~ The kiddo's are schooling and coping, I am soaking in the warmth which is strange for this time of year and Mr Darcy seems just dandy. The Winter veg are well on their way and all the farmyard chickens are on strike. We all fight for that one egg that pops out every morning. Looking forward to Spring to see those eggs lining our fridge again~ Have a happy day Lots of love Suzanne X

Looks like a lovely day!

the yarn looks so squishy and soft, gorgeous colours! I was pleased to read in your comment that you enjoy your joy spinning wheel. Mine had been ordered the day before, so your description made me even more excited to receive it. Its here now and i'm so very pleased with it. I will keep my eye out for an elder bush, I wonder if they grow in Australia

I have heard of Mollie Makes from other bloggers too but have failed to look into it, you have sparked my interest again. Our chooks haven't begun to lay and I fear they won't want to now the cold is setting in. That wool is delicious. Best to you and yours : )
