Yeah, I'm Here. Barely.
So we enter the sickness round two. My daughter's fever has reappeared, so we headed back to the doctor. Now we get to try some antibiotics. Hope they work, as this crud has been turning into pneumonia for lots of kids--I saw a number of parents and kids walking around with chest x-rays at the doctor's office. Anna has the rattly chest, but no real issues yet. I hope this works--she has had a fever for almost a week now.Just to let you know that I haven't abandoned the Flower Basket Shawl:
I didn't get a very good picture, but I did make it through the 4th repeat of the middle pattern. Yeah! I've been putting a lifeline every repeat to help me move along. The lace making is getting easier. Now I'm thinking about what happens with the blocking--I would like to use blocking wires. So far the only place that I've found that has them is Fiddlesticks. Any other suggestions? They seem perfect for lace and handy for other blocking. I think it would help to have those nice straight pieces that I wish for....
This evening I get to leave the sick child with hubby and head out for an intarsia class at our LYS. It sounds like I'm the only one signed up--a private lesson, cool! I'll take pictures and post tomorrow!
