Hi dear blog readers...
We are at the end of a heat wave that took over Western New York this week. phew! Winds are really blowing today...and Summer Solstace was this week...so days will be getting a tad bit shorter. booo
I manged to get some knitting done this week.
The Ric Rac shawl is so fun. I seem to knit faster when there are colors involved. I'm about to start repeating the first color again. The rows are getting very long now....
Finished up the toe and am ready to start colorwork on the 2nd sock. I'm sorry now I did the snowflake on just the front and back of the sock...thought I was so clever....oopps..probably not.
Ruth ripped the vest she was working on...much too big.
She is making socks, and started this hat....Easwas by Kate Davies. Yarn is Jill Draper makes stuff Mohonk lite. She said it's pinker than the photo. Lovely details!
Martha started this hat after she finished up her socks:
Bonnie Isle Hat. She is using Jamison yarns. Fun colors!
Here are her finished fun socks!
In other news:
Martha's daughter and her boyfriend attended a wedding...total glam shot!
I had Wednesday thru Friday off of work this week. Spent Wednesday making freezer jam.
Even after sharing with the kids, I won't need to make any next year.
Friday we left for a weekend getaway.
Visited Cayuga Lake...
Went to see Old Dominion in concert. I have loved their music since before they were famous. They did not disappoint.
Played a lot of old favorites as well as new music.
We stayed on Oneida Lake...view from our porch this morning before we left.
Have a great week dear blog readers....
