Back to the knitting
Well, there’s not much to show of the lace wrap yet… here it is, in its present state. A whopping 1.5 repeats completed, out of 42 repeats just for the center section! I grabbed the yarn & needles on my way out the door on Friday when we headed off to Santa Clara, but I neglected to bring waste yarn for the provisional cast on. Oops! Thankfully, we stopped in Fairfield, found a Michael’s (eeew), and bought some waste yarn. From now on, I’m carrying a few yards of worsted weight yarn in my knitting bag!
I have to say that I adore knitting with this silk. It is SO soft.
There’s been other knitting in the past week too… mostly done while driving around Northern California touring with the family. In one week, we drove about 1000 miles total, and I managed to finish the front of Salina and start on sleeve #1. That project should be done by fall.
And, a completely random picture:
This is a guy I saw on my drive home from work last night. A very manly man at first glance (had facial hair, driving a Harley), but take a closer look… Do you see what I saw? His shoes! Oh. My. Gosh. What does he have on his feet? Are those sparkly green flats I see? They are! Sparkly green flats! On a man riding a Harley! (And would those not look so cute with my lace wrap?)
