A few weeks ago I was doing something on my computer and realized that this very month, March of 2013, is five years since I began blogging. Wow! So I decided that I’d have a blogiversary giveaway this month. Everyone who leaves me a comment on any post this month will be entered into a random drawing. At the end of the month I’ll put all the names in a hat & pull one lucky winner for one of my handwoven towels. Even though I didn’t announce the giveaway till this post, I will go back and include names from earlier posts in the drawing. (Comment as often as you like, but just one entry per person.) In addition to the towels I wove in February<\/a>, and one I have left from last year<\/a>, I’ll be weaving more in the next few weeks, so you haven’t seen them all yet.<\/p>\n

It didn’t take me too long to finish weaving the shawls I mentioned in my last post – in another of Tammy’s hand painted yarns called Frost. Then I fringed & wet finished.<\/p>\n

This time I think the photo turned out well. Perhaps the key is the amount of natural light. Today was a bright, sunny day, with sunshine not falling directly on the shawl itself. If only I could always control the sunshine. \ud83d\ude42 If we have sun, or at least brightness again tomorrow I think I’m going to try and re-shoot the Silver Linings shawls.<\/p>\n

The sunshine yesterday & today was really wonderful after many days of gray skies. I had lovely walks with my dog instead of having to drag myself up the hill. I didn’t get any pictures, though. I’m really disappointed in my camera. It wants brand new batteries after taking about 3 photos. Same thing happened with my last camera & I ended up buying a new one. I think I’m going to try and find an AC cord for this one. UPDATE: In doing an online search for an AC cord I changed my mind and bought a set of 4 Eneloops batteries & a charger. They are reportedly the best. I’ll let you know what happens.<\/em><\/p>\n
