Weekend Update

We went to the Army Bowl on Saturday-it was freakishly cold and wet. Normally here in South Texas, we have highs in the upper 60s or 70s. Apparently, my mother has our weather in D.C and we have theirs. But I got to knit on the Perdita I still have as a gift yet to give. It's so handy just to toss in my purse.

I was able to get 2 repeats of the cabled brim for a hat I am working on for another Christmas gift. (Next year I am not overloading myselflike this year)...I have 6 more and I can start picking up stitches for the crown. Lorelei got a few toys that came in a clear vinyl zippered bag that is terrific for holding and transporting my current knitting projects. One has a interior pocket so I can put a chart in it so I don't have to carry around the pattern separately.

In my LoneStar Knitting Group we challenged ourselves to finish some UFOs...most of mine are gifts that I didn't finish. Then I can start on socks and lace!! Every night before I fall asleep I think of all the stuff I am going to knit with my new yarn. I have a great lace cardiganette I want to design with the undyed laceweight wool I got from knitpicks. But I can't start until all my UFOs become FOs.

I am all sore from cleaning the bath tub yesterday too...I really don't want to get off the couch. And I still haven't had my hot chocolate yet!
