Breaking Up

 Hi Dear Knitters...we are in a heat wave in Western NY this weekend. They have canceled schools Monday and Tues pm.  

I worked on the green sweater for a bit t his past week and ended up ripping it. My numbers were off again.  It's not the pattern, it's me. I guess I am not in a good place to concentrate that  hard. But I did count after every row but who knows.  Sometimes you just have to break up with a pattern.

I started a cute little shawlette.  Pattern said it was good for varigated yarn which I have a lot of.

 Candied Crescent Shawl.  Size 4 needle.Soklusu O yarn.  colorway Shepherd's Delight

I have to pay attention, but the pattern is easy.  Yea...like a beach read but knitting.


 Ruth is away this week and working on her vest.  She is making good progress.


 Martha has finished up the first baby sweater she is making for her daughter's friend, and started a second one.



 2nd sweater has sleeves.  Yarn is Mirasol yarn by SISA. colors called Apatite. It’s teal. It’s 60% wool 40% alpaca.  If you look close you can see the color matches her toes! Ha!

Not much other news this week.

Joe and I worked outside a lot getting the yard in shape. Got the pool opened today. yea!

Sometimes it is best to break up with a project. I say knit what makes your heart sing. There is a lot of lovely knitting here. I love those blue sleeves that match the toenail polish. I am so partial to blue.
