Today is already a special day, it's the person who taught me to knit's 97th birthday! My Grandma Lillian turns 97 today, isn't that cool? We're heading over to my mom's house (where my grandma lives) for dinner and ice cream cake tonight. We'll see if she'll eat dinner, she really prefers to just eat ice cream cake if it is available. Happy Birthday Grandma!
Today is also week 2 of my Clapotis KAL at Beach Basket. Last week was great, we got cast on, worked a few inches, got comfortable with the pattern, and talked about dog training tricks. I did some "homework" and got to the first dropped stitch row, since I figured there's be some questions there.
I had to switch up to one of my larger sized bags, since I was being a little unrealistic with the Lu Lu. I am IN LOVE with this yarn, it's the Malabrigo Sock I mentioned last week. I think I only want to knit with this yarn from now on and have already been digging around, checking out colors, and scheming some future projects. The color is luscious, it's super easy to work with, and the fabric it's creating is so soft and delicious. Gah!
Alrighty, huge, ridiculous knitting bag packed....I'm off to the yarn store for the day!
