Last month, late at night, I was searching ravelry for a pair of legwarmers to knit for my daughter to keep her muscles warm in ballet class. No luck. Then, by happenstance, I came across a request for test knitters for Luna Grey’s new legwarmer pattern, Queen Bee.
Miss Sunshine selected a skein of — sport yarn, the melon colourway…yum! A very straightforward knit with just enough pattern to keep it interesting, but not distracting. And squishy is a good way to describe the yarn because there is indeed a lot of bounce to it.
The legwarmers fit perfectly well and Sunshine is looking forward to dance class tomorrow to try them out.
As for reading, I have two books that have captivated me at bedtime for a few weeks now. Richard Harvell’s novel, “The Bells” was beautifully written and a wonderful tale. Absolutely highly recommend this book if you like history, opera, and an engaging story. The second book was a gift from Diane Morriss who owns Sono Nis Press publishing. “Who We Are” by Elizabeth May, chronicles her life in politics, as a babe in the arms of her activist mother to becoming the leader of Canada’s Green Party. As she writes, “This is a book about how we (Canadians) got where we are today – a decent country of immense potential, suddenly on the wrong side of history.”

Well done, and they do fit perfectly. Love that beautiful color. Good luck Miss Sunshine, you certainly look the part!
So adorable! I could have used these when I was a young girl doing ballet, freezing. 🙂
Pink is my most favorite color, and the pattern is beautiful! Looks like this one will be a winner.
So sweet – all of it.
