In a very small town alongside a creek in NW Oregon, my husband and I live and work, entangled in fibery pursuits. Ed turns out skillfully crafted knitting needles, crochet hooks, spindles, and shuttles. I manage the finishing work and the office end of our business – Jenkins Woodworking.
Playing in the creek & taking long hikes, and the occasional horse ride, are my favorite outdoor activities. We love the occasional camping trip far away from crowds, where I enjoy playing the fiddle besides a dashing creek. Sundays we try to set aside for worshipping God with our small Quaker meeting.

I have some of your needles and love them. That said, the real reason I am writing is to tell you when I look for a way to relax, find internal peace, sometimes I read your blog. Your writing, your appreciation for life is always perfectly expressed. May your thoughts and feelings always continue. I thank you for them.

Thanks for stopping by my blog. The Daffodil Superwash is just itching for someone to spin it.
And of course, I found you through Ravelry and Jenkins Woodworking. The N Tunisian hook is on my wish list. Beautiful work, both of you. Very inspiring. Great blog!
