Promises Kept
OK, so it's not the best photo (I shot it with my phone. Give me a break. I'm lazy.) But it does show you that I'm through one full repeat of the pattern on the sleeve. And given that I haven't spent a ton of time knitting it since I cut the steek on Friday, I think that's pretty good. And it gets better because the rounds keep getting smaller! I'm going to Washington, DC tomorrow, and I'm going to take Z with me. You may even bump into us at Knit Happens, because I'm contemplating going there for some fun and games. Plus, Kristine is just super-cool.
What else? I'm going back to Ohio to visit my mom and dad next week; Mom wants to start a new knitting project so I'm going to help set her up with something fun to make. Probably a baby blankie, but we're not sure.
In other, other news, well, that's kind of it. I have gallstones, which is of course not exciting. I have to schedule an appointment with another specialist to find out what happens next. I will keep you posted!
Also, a big thanks to all the advice you've given me lately, from quilting frames to Scottish knit bloggers. You're all the best!
