Hi Dear Blog Reaers...I'm a day late, but here I am.
Happy Memorial Day. Pouring rain here today. Rained all day Saturday too. I did manage to get some flowers planted yesterday.
After many tink backs, managed to finish up the first sleeve of the sweater, and have a start on the 2nd one. I can't wait to get this done! So sick of it! You all know the feeling!
Knit a couple rows of the sock. Need to decide soon what the heel will be. I think I might do an afterthought heel.
Here is Ruth's finished beautiful sweater! Talcott cardigan by Amy Herzog.
The whole sweater needed to be seamed, and she did a great job! Notice the beautiful buttons. When I first learned to knit sweaters, they all had to be seamed. I'm not a fan of that process myself. Ruth did a beautiful job.
She got some yarn from Longmeadow Farm when we went to a fibre show a couple of weeks ago.
And...drumroll...her hat is finished. Beautiful. I love her choice of colors.
Martha is super busy with end of school paperwork and activities. She is working on a fun colorful sock.
In other news:
Martha's and her husband finished expanding their patio. So nice and roomy...She is deciding how to use the space now.
Martha's daughter, Emma, graduated with her Doctorate! She is going to teach music at a college in Maine. Big exciting changes coming for her!
I made Cowboy Caviar today...yumm. I added in cucumbers...so good and fresh!
We all went to Joey and Casey's yesterday. Joey and Mason went swimming in Lake Ontario....fun!
Tiffany brought a little water toy experience for Charlotte and Jayce. Both thought it was pretty fun...Charlotte will be sitting up soon, and Jayce will be walking soon.
I had 17,000 steps in yesterday...I'm pooped today. Time to go knit! Have a great week dear blog readers...

Holy cow, 17,000 steps sounds like an all time record. I'd be exhausted too. All the knitting is so beautiful. That completed sweater looks like it was knit by a master. And yes, I do know that feeling of "will this ever be finished?" What a nice weekend.
congrats on the graduate!! We walk so much when we are in NYC I think the most was 30,000 steps but that was many years ago! I don't think I could do that anymore. Lovely knitting.
