Okay, that is so strange. I opened your blog page and thought "How did she get a picture of my Bad Penny (BP)?". LOL. I am doing the same pattern in the Cara Mia in the same shade of Coral. I am using the Cara Mia in Cranberry as the CC. I will be curious to see how similar our BPs are in the end (I, for one, can't help but to modify the heck out of everything).

how funny! nad isn't that great yarn. it works up sooo soft. i love
it. i think i'm going to make the whole thing in a solid color. i
didn't see anything that struck my fancy as a contrast and i like solids
anyway. i know what you mean about adapting patterns. i for one amd
going to make the sleeves a bit longer and i;m going to repeat the eyelet

i'll decide later if that would be too much. it is a fun project though
and so fast. glad you saw the photo! just tells you that great minds
think alike :) have a great day. lesley

with a beautiful day off? well we went for a "scent"ic drive out to the beach. we being the dog. and me. she loves to stick her nose out the window and smell where we are going. we took a few lonely roads. ok, so maybe like 10 little roads. i make turns at random when i'm not in a hurry. and can you blame me? just check out the view! it really was spectacular. i would love to live out this way! we finally arrived at north beach in point reyes national seashore. they have a few beaches where leashed pets are allowed. i snacked on a quick lunch of tomatoes, figs, raisins, and almonds (from the farmer's market again) then we headed down to the water. my baby is 12 and she's never seen the ocean. i must be a terrible mother or something. she was just staring and staring. she couldn't get enough. after repeatedly chasing and running away from the waves for a half an hour she was content to just sit back and relax on a dune. and then she stood and told me it was ti...
