Almost There

I'm this close to finishing the neck warmer. I think I need another 1-1.5 inches to make it long enough to cover my neck down to where a zip up pullover would end.

Originally I thought the right side would be the side of the ribbing that had more knit stitches, but last night the girls all thought the other side looked better because the knit stitches popped out. I tried to get a picture of it but it's hard because I didn't have a helper and you really need to stretch it to see the stitches pop.

So, hopefully we'll have a finished neck warmer to show you all tomorrow!

Knitting on the Road

Yup, I did it. I went and bought the book last night. Was there any doubt?

Now my biggest quandry is going to be which pattern to try first. There are so many lovely ones in this book!

If Politics Could Only Imitate Baseball

The Massachusetts underdogs swept the World Series last night, handing St. Louis the defeat on their home turf in Bus(c)h Stadium. We can only hope next Tuesday will be as fortuitous.

We'll see how long this lasts.

Anyway, I'm thinking about getting Knitting on the Road. I keep seeing it popping up all over the blogs.
