I have boo-boos!! I was doing loads of yard work – specifically, raking and working the chipper/shredder. Yes, I should have worn gloves. Hope these blisters don’t interfere with the knitting!

I also hope you are enjoying your weekend! The weatherman did not disappoint and we are having some glorious weather! Boar and I also worked hard getting the pool cover off. A bit early in the season – however, our pool is as old as the house and every year there is some surprise waiting for us. So we have always opened it early, that way by the time we deal with whatever the year’s issue is, it will be ready for the hot, steamy weather.

btw, Boar took the picture of my hands – he thinks I am ridiculous with this blog. alot he knows!

Pictures!

The rain has finally stopped around here! And we have been promised a beautiful, sunny, warm weekend! hip, hip hooray! I got out the new camera, and some knitting projects so this entry is full of pictures. None, however of The Vest. It is at a very boring stage, so I will wait for my Boar to model it.

a shawl from Knitter’s – I used three yarns, but it was all so long ago the details escape me.

mittens – there is a matching hat, but it is hiding from me in the closet – if I search for it, I will be forced to go through all of the winter things – and no one wants that to happen.

cool, hip skinny scarf – from Interweave. I gave away a couple of these as gifts – one was knit with another strand of amber mohair

shawl – was initially supposed to be a sexy-ish tunic. we decided against that.
