Knit-along check in

Anyone doing anything? I saw that Megan has started a pink Cable-Eight. It sounds like there’s going to be lots of pink! I asked my LYS to order me some Cotton Fleece in Terracotta Canyon. It’s a perfect color that I think will look quite smashing on me. But no, I haven’t the yarn, so I haven’t started knitting.

Yesterday, I knit some more on the First Spun Shawl. (I spun some more for the FSS too).

It’s bigger now. See? I left my feet in the shot for reference.

And, one of Nate’s friends, the same talented lady that drew my picture for the blog, sent me some yarn from New York.

I think it would make a nice jacket or hoodie for one of the girls. Thanks Chrisitine!

Thank you for your well wishes yesterday. I am still cranky and moping, but for some reason, it is comfort in it’s own way. I know I’ll come around. Of course, yesterday I ate WAY more food that was necessary to sustain life. That’s going to bite me in the butt.

    I’m sorry you’ve been having such a rough time lately. I know it’s probably been said a million times, but it will get better. Really, it will.
    Let me know if I can do anything to help, kay?

    It is still not too late to get Shamrock shakes at McD’s – how about after Finchy’s tonight? I’m coming tonight and we are going to have FUN!

    THe NY yarn is pretty – that will be fun to make something with!

    Hi Laura,
    I’m sorry your back is still hurting… that totally sucks… I was going to email you to say I couldn’t come to knitting tonight (too much going on here what with deciding to move all of a sudden!) But since you need cheering up and Gayle’s gonna be there I’d better come at least for a little while. 🙂 Besides, then I’ll get to tell you all about our new house!
    BTW, I think your spun stuff looks great!

    Hey Laura! Glad you liked the funky yarn– it was a contribution from my old knitting krew (the ladeez moved away and now we all gots little babeez)… it was in the nursery for the longest while and then it suddenly occured to me that if there’s anyone that can do something with it, it would be you!

    Hope all is well! Kisses!
