Joyce and I designed a scarf to knit with my Silk Maiden. I casted on tonight and it’s working alone pretty nicely. I am so excited to finally be using this beautiful yarn. Everyone at complimented me on it. I’m gonna be wearing a nice colourful scarf in the middle of the cold dark winter. I’m so excited.
I also finally gave Stephanie the wedding present that I brought her from my trip to Mexico. It is a set of beautiful white placemats.
Here is a picture of us admiring our knitting and the placemats at the same time. I call it the Sears Catalog picture.
Here’s another picture of us posing and smiling and knitting and having a dandy time accompanied by some red wine (we actually put the wine aside for the picture, to give the impression that we don’t drink that much during drink night knit night).
Note that Joyce is picking peeking in the back. She totally wanted to get in all the pictures tonight.
So I took a special picture of her to show her how much I love her. She was winding some amazing 4 Ply Silk Cashmere for Bethany when I took the picture. Doesn’t she look like she’s having a great time?
Finally, a picture of some of the amazing yarn they have at Lettuce Knit. You can see Manos del Uruguay if you look to the right and left sides and Socks that Rock in the middle. Even though I am not a sock knitter, I can appreciate a pretty yarn. It’s beautiful!
