Hello All,
Whew! I am glad that Friday is here. It has been a busy week for me (and it's not over yet...work beckons).
After stating in numerous places that I am better at monogamous knitting...or at least really not too many projects on the go at once...I am now contemplating casting on so many things! Oh well, variety is the spice of life.
I'm stilll working on the Shakerag Skirt and I rediscovered the purple (non-wool) cowl I started for Leslie. They both need attention.
But I spent some delightful time yesterday stash diving! I needed (ha!) to cast on a pair of socks to have something easy to work on when I meet up with Dee on Saturday. The yarn has been chosen and caked up, but I haven't had a chance to cast on yet.
I went ahead and bought the Hitch on the Move pattern and have my yarn picked out for that...not caked up yet, but hopefully today.
Can you see why I want to cast on EVERYTHING???
Kym also convinced me to go ahead and get the Sinkmates pattern for dishcloths. I love the little I-cord loop. I will probably look at my cotton yarn today and pick something out.
Meanwhile it is hot as blazes here. And HUMID to the Nth degree. This morning I need to run to CVS to pick up a prescription and some other stuff. Then I have a conference call at 11. This afternoon I'll run to the grocery store to pick up some good French or Italian bread to brush with EVOO and toast under the broiler. We will sample the caponata for dinner tonight!
I'm still so sad that Mabel hasn't shown up. But due to her absence, the other critters are out and about more often. We've been seeing Steve the Beav (our resident groundhog) just about daily. And this guy (and his family members) are also seen daily.
They munch away on all the clover in our yard, hopefuly ignoring and missing all the deer poop!
Cheers to the weekend ahead - Enjoy!!
