--- Starting again on a sweater using a fabulous yarn in a fabulous color.
--- Waking up 2 lbs lighter than yesterday, and 5 lbs lighter than Monday. We've started getting vegetables from our share on an organic farm, and I can tell the difference!
--- Sharing quiet contemplation with this guy. He was resting right outside my kitchen window.
--- Getting my hair cut by a stylist who really knows how to cut hair, and who also happens to be the cheapest in the salon.
--- Buying yarn to make a gift for a loved one, and chatting with the sweet women who work at my LYS.
--- Spending a gift certificate at my LYS, given to me by a wonderful (but alas recently departed) manager.
--- Walking to a local festival, and finding three books at their rummage sale. They were a dollar each.
--- Swatching and dreaming of new projects.
I hope your Saturday has been as wonderful as mine has been so far!
Those are all definitely things that would make me happy too! Have a great weekend!

So much to comment on...
I think I like the second sweater color even better than the first one. The yarn looks so pretty.
That squirrel picture is too cute!
The blue/grey yarn looks utterly yummy. What will you be making? Why, I guess you can't really say. And what a great find with the books. Isn't that the best?!
Glad you're having a great weekend. I found a new (sort of local) yarn store today. I wanted to roll around in all the fibery goodness.

Happiness truly is loosing a few pounds. That is until you need to make a run for the light rail in pants that are a size too big..and they start falling down.
Sounds like a start to a great weekend to me! I really love the yarn in the last photo.

Gorgeous yarns all around! The squirrel is so cute. A really good, reasonably priced hair stylist is a fantastic find! I'm so glad you're having such a delightful Saturday. May tomorrow be even better!

Sounds like a lovely Saturday! Fresh vegetable s are a wonderful thing.
Lovely yarns! The bottom swatch looks like Fleece Artist Woodland to me. Is that Sea Wool for socks?

I don't know. That's a lot of joy and serenity to compare to...

I had an awesome Saturday too, but yours is pretty hard to beat. The books, the yarn, the new projects! The wildlife too.

happiness is also finding time to knit again after not having time for over a month! i took the month of june off from catering, so between that and 24 hours in a car this weekend, i'm almost done with a fuzzy black beret! :-)
