Finished Object

Pattern: Autumn Vines Beret
Designer: Alana Dakos
Yarn: Sublime cashmere merino silk dk
Needle: size 6
joy: massive!

I love this pattern so much! If you can read and knit you can make this...Alana does such an amazing job explaining every twist turn and slip that you'd be hard pressed to screw it up...use a solid color yarn that is luxurious to the touch and make this pattern. Trust me, whoever you make it for will love it and you will be tickled every time you see it!
I think my friend Shanna is going to be styling in Budapest and Prague in a couple weeks...don't you?

Happy Friday!
p.s.
I'm currently sitting in the parking lot of Costco typing this on my phone...isn't technology great? Now if only Costco would open I could keep moving with my day...no worries though I have my knitting with me!

Life in the Time of Covid

I have officially been working from home. Staying home.  Self-Isolating.  Safe Distancing.  For three four months.  My last day at my office was March 12.  If I look back and track how this transition has gone it's roller coaster.  But if you really want an accurate accounting of how my time has been spent These pictures sum it all up Thank you Anna Hrochavec for your amazing inspiring patterns Happy End of June. May the odds be ever in our favor for July. Naked Gnome, Tiny Island, Unicorn tiny cat octopus. one of my favorites fried eggs. Seriously how can you not be in love with these guys Ragnar by special request of my husband who is watching Vikings Tiny Parrot.

Knitter Down...I Repeat, We Have a Knitter Down...

It's probably not that dramatic, well maybe it is, who can say for sure....but I can say this, right now from my elbow to my wrist is some gnarly pain that was flared last night after knitting 6 rows of the Shawl...SIX ROWS and then WHAMMO! so much pain. This isn't the first day I've had this, I've actually been ignoring for a few days ...okay, I've been ignoring it for a couple weeks but this is the worst it's been...So, I've made inquiries as to which doctor to see and am waiting to hear back to make an appointment...while I wait ice packs, and copious amounts of pain meds (don't worry by copius I really mean, recommended daily dose) are being taken with the shedding of a few tears while I fondle my knitting... stay tuned...this can't possibly last forever xoxoxo c. p.s. Fati...don't worry I have a plan if this whole wrist issues blows out of control...
