I swear, I didn’t set this up. Right now, Clark is cooking monkeys, and saying, “Hot monkeys. Hot monkeys.”
I’m glad the knobs are on the back of the stove, but I suppose it’s only a matter of time. He’s much more concerned with things being “real” than my girls were.
So, I ignored laundry last week, which means I have nothing to wear and tons to do. I’m going to get that started and then head out to the yard. Which reminds me, I had an enormous pile of plants on the walkway in the yard, and I put a sign out saying “Free Plants”, not really expecting anyone to take anything, but I figured it was worth a try. There’s only two left. We were out on our date on Saturday, and came home to almost everything being gone. I’m happy they’re gone, but I’d hoped to get a picture of the mountain of stuff I’d yanked out of the yard, and now I can’t.
I worked a lot on the shawl over the weekend.
I have 14 rows to go, plus the bind-off, and….
not enough yarn to do it. I have a plan, but I don’t know if it’s going to work.

Hot monkeys! I love it! I’m bummed you won’t be coming over to spin, but glad you’ll be going to the Gathering. I’m sure it will be nice to get in some family time while you’re down there as well.

Oh my goodness! I thought that was hamburger in the stove, until I saw him holding the monkey in the last photo! 🙂
Your little guy is SUCH a cutie! Train him well and you won’t have to cook dinner when he’s older!

It’s the Flower Basket Shawl from Interweave Knits in Fall of ’04 I think, but you can buy the pattern from Fiber Trends. It’s an Evelyn Clark.
I’m using Zen Garden sock yarn I bought in Portland in January.
