So, I’m working on my sweater – 15″ of stockinette stitch – very boring. But I love, love, love this yarn and can not wait to have this done! I just hope that it isn’t August and 105 in the shade when it’s done! Here is a picture of this work in progress. I’ll try and be faithful to update with photos as we progress!
And, more knitting goodness – yesterday I got a package from my Secret Pal!!! I was running out the door but I made us late to see what was in the box!! 😀
Inside was a beautiful card with a note, notecards that I can only describe as swanky (what fun!) and 4 skeins of “Dream” by Moda Dea. I’ve been fondling this yarn nonstop – it’s soooo soft! I did notice that is exactly my sister’s favorite color and she has been wanting me to knit her a poncho! I am so tickled by that idea! And I think it would be a great distraction when the stockinette stitch gets TOO boring! Thank you Secret Pal! I noticed you mailed this from Lake Arrowhead – I have family down there! What a beautiful place you live!!
OK – back to sick kids, homeschooling and laundry! Playtime’s over!! 😉
that gift is great!
Small world. We have more in common than you may know. 🙂 Great idea for that yarn, and I think it would make an awesome lightweight poncho. Good idea!
I hope you got the more recent package — You should have had it this past weekend at the latest? It’s insured for $50 so please let me know if you didn’t get it?
In related stuff, could you please measure your wrist for me at a comfortable tension and let me know what that is? (Don’t worry. I didn’t knit you a sweater. :p )
Thanks!
