Weekend O Fun
What a weekend. We were mostly playing catch up from the week. I was really tired from all of the workshops that I ran and the stress of trying to deal with what my new job entails. I guess the problem is that no one really knows what I am supposed to be doing, since this is a new job, and we are making things up as we go along. Hopefully this will all work out soon.Anna and Bruce were busy yesterday in the yard. It is so hot here--100 degrees--that the plants are just hanging on. But, there are some tomatoes in the garden. I guess tomato part 2 is starting. Here's a picture of Anna raking with Daddy (The little wooden rake was mine as a kid--bought from an Amish store in Lancaster, I think).
As for knitting, I finished up the actual knitting on the Yarn Girls tank from the Summer Interweave Knits. The yarn is a gorgeous light blue blend of silk and pima cotton from Classic Elite. Now I have to stitch it together and finish the crochet edging. I'll post pictures of it shortly (plus two other finished projects).
Now I get to return to the never ending felted bag from Hip to Knit. I frogged my (stupid) mistake--I was watching the Olympics, reading blogs, and watching the kid, so I wasn't paying attention and missed the edge knitting. Argh.
