progress....

Just a quick post to show off my fair isle blanket thus far.  I've got 7 out of 10 sections finished and am started on the 8th.  And I'm loving this blanket.  So much.


This is the Fair Isle Club 2 blanket by Marie Wallin.  I'm rebelling by knitting each section in the round, complete with steeks.  My fingers are tightly crossed that I won't run out of yarn.

Various other events have occurred since my last post, including a fun day with the Boy Child as he set up for viewing the (70%) solar eclipse on August 21.  It was pretty cool, even without a total eclipse involved.



Father type kindly took pics of me modeling my Ilia sweater, which I finished way back when but never showed off on my body.  We went to the Walkway Over the Hudson, so I thought it was a good time for a photo shoot.



And here is a pic from our actual birthday celebrations for the Girl Child, way back in August.


I probably missed something in there, but you get the gist of it all.


Mia says good night.....
