I did a lot this weekend--a lot of
sitting and knitting! The Two Kaths Hat
is finished and the seed stitch scarf that would be a cowl is almost
finished. It started out as a scarf but
decided to be a cowl partly due to the tactile joy the seed stitch brings, and
partly due to the quickly decreasing amount of the kid silk yarn I have added
to the white merino wool. I thought I
had another skein of it but nooooooo.
While I knit DH watched weekend golf
and I listened to an audio book--The Third Gate by Lincoln Child. This is not a book I would want to listen to
in the dark as I do sometimes when I can't sleep. Just a little weird and scary in a Stephen
King sort of way! That was a good thing
on Saturday and Sunday because as the plot became more tense I knitted faster
and faster!
The weekend also brought a revelation
which is, I cannot Not have a sweater on the needles!! The result of this discovery is that I
ordered more organic cotton:
for the Superior Classic Cardigan. Click on the link and see my next project. I can't wait for the yarn to arrive.
Life is good!

Thanks for the link to the gorgeous sweater. It is going to be beautiful in purple.
Not much knitting going on here, as I am working on another Quilt of Valor - funny how much the weather affects my motivation to sew or knit.
Awww your hat is going to look great on a little one!!!
PUrple yarn......will be gorgeous knitted up to that classic sweater.
I have to cast on anew tonight too......I think it is going to be socks.....I have the yarn, the needles, now I just need some post work energy.
Darling hat. Now, to see if I have yarn in my stash for that classic sweater.
Not that I'd actually have time to knit it, but you know... for the sake of conversation...
adorable hat, hope your grandaughter is doing well
