Spring at Last!

Today has been a wonderful day! The temp. reached 76 degrees! And you can see from the picture of Sterl working in the garden that there is still ice on most of the lake in the background.

We still have a pile of snow over 3' high at the end of the driveway. Went looking for ice cream but none of the stands are open yet. So we looked at new dock materials instead. Doesn't taste nearly as good, but lasts longer!

Since it was so nice I decided it would be a good time to photograph some projects out in the yard. First is the Jamaica Pouch from the One Skein Wonders book from 2006. It was designed by my daughter and I've meant to knit it for a while, now, and finally got to it. Katia Jamaica.

Next is the pair of socks with yarn (River Bed) and needles from Knitpicks. I'm knitting both together on 1 long (40") needle. Have only knit about 3" of leg so far. Must get busy. The yarn is soft, the needle a pleasure, and so far I haven't had a problem with tangling the 2 skeins.

Now it's time to get dinner so must leave you. Have a great day!
