rogue'n along

well, i only had one class today, and since i don't have my textbooks yet and don't really want to start studying yet...i came home and knitted. and knitted. and knitted. and i'm gonna knit some more. but i was at a stopping point - three balls in do you think i have enough yarn??? 18 balls its the right yardage but i always panick at this point! - anyway. here it is! the first chart is completed and i've started on the second chart. btw i think this is closer to the actual color than the last photo i posted. kinda greeney blue teal, but dusty. anyway. they call it cornflower...but isn't that supposed to be kinda periwinkle. k. really i'm gonna go knit now.

When you said it was cornflower blue, that's what I thought, kind of a periwinkle blue. It's still a pretty color, but you know how these yarn companies do, give you a name of something and when you see it, it looks totally different than you expected! You will have plenty of yarn, so calm down.

Wow, nice!! I love the way your cables are popping out. I think you'll have enough yarn. This has been knit so many times that I'm sure the yardage was correct. Hey -- can you shoot me an email to jeniferorama AT gmail DOT com with Shirley's email address on it? I seem to have lost it. Her yarn is on the way. :)

what do you do

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...
