Events: The Estes Park Wool Market will be held June 9-12 in Estes Park Colorado. June 11th happens to be Worldwide Knit in Public Day. If you will be in Estes Park and are interested in meeting up with me to knit in public sometime that day, please respond to the Knit in Public thread in our Clothed In The Lamb group forum at Ravelry.com.

I will be teaching beginning spindling in the near future. Yarnin': I made a little gift for my cousin who is a crocheter and is in the hospital recovering from surgery. The flowers are knitted from the Rose of Sharing pattern by Mary Jo Colwell. Here's a picture of it. My Norwegian Rose Socks are still with the surrogate sock knitter. I'm still working on the Swallowtail Shawl in Alpaca with a Twist Fino in the Twilight colorway. Thank God for lifelines! I'm looking forward to casting on the Daybreak Shawl soon.

Mandarin Minute: This episode's words are bu meaning "no" and dui meaning "correct, yes". Lovely: I'm falling in love with my hubby all over again. Prayer Shawl: I share some answers to our prayers, including a lovely letter from Elise of the Knit Misadventures podcast, and we pray again for her grandma and family. We pray for SabraB, a listener who recently learned she has breast cancer that will require mastectomy and chemo therapy. We also pray for my cousin who is in the hospital recovering from surgery. If you would like prayer for yourself or someone you know, you may post your request on the Prayer Shawl thread of the Clothed In The Lamb group forum at Ravelry.com. Optionally, you may e-mail your request directly to me at podcast@clothedinthelamb.com. Share as much or as little as you wish, and I look forward to praying for you.
