![The Irish have a phrase anamchara which means soul friend. I’d like to wish the happiest of birthdays to a soul friend.
I appreciate her support of my writing journey and how she’s always game to chat about my shifter romances.
I also love that she never seems to get enough of me and that feeling is mutual.
She sings, dances, hikes, makes balloon animals, takes brilliant photos, and writes poetry. I admire the way she parents. And yes, she can knit.
Perhaps more than anything, I treasure the laughs we’ve shared.
@marz1pan , you had me at hello! Happy Birthday!!!

Since I finished the Mashad socks (pattern by Hunter Hammersen) last summer and wore them in August in Texas on my feet inside shoes during a record draught when it was a billion degrees outside, I know they are rather warm. So, when it was time to pack socks for Colorado, they were the first pair that came to mind.
This pair of socks had a little bit of a rough start, but once I found a yarn I was happy with (Barking Dogs Achilles in Teal Mist), they were completely charming. So, pick out some pretty semi-solid yarn and knit up a pair. I think you’ll be smitten!
Ps. Hunter’s latest book is coming out, so don’t forget to pre-order….otherwise, when I start knitting the socks from the new book, you’ll be pea green with envy!
