It was a slippery ride home on the bus. It’s been showing since lunch time those small little flakes that get slippery on the road – a couple inches of them. But I’m safely home and that’s where I plan to stay.
I did get rid of one unfinished knitty object on the bus. As I was knitting on a triangular scarf, I decided the pattern was just not what I wanted – it was going to be too deep of a vee before the ends finally got long enough to wrap around my neck and it was way to much rib stitch – just too boring even for bus knitting. But I really liked the yarn so I quit knitting on it and on the way home – unraveled it and rewound the ball. That yarn will be something else.
I just finished printing the Art Deco pattern pages I needed and will be casting that on shortly after I find some dinner.
But waiting for me at the office today – my final yarn purchases of this year.
This is Miss Babs Yowza in Old Gold – it will grow up to be a sweater some day.
And then there was my Box of Fun which contained these oh so cute stitch markers.
Somewhere in this house there are stitch markers hiding in great number but whenever I want some I can’t find them so I’m hoping I can keep these little cuties from disappearing. What could be more perfect than little yarn balls for markers.
And of course there was yarn
Shalimar – Breathless DK in Glacier. The photo is a little off – it’s more the light green color in the quilt the yarn is on – in the photo of the stitch markers than the blue it shows in my photo of the yarn. It will grow up (I think) to be a cowl necked poncho.
Now to find a quick dinner and pick out some dvds to keep me entertained as I knit into the new year.
