This is the first weekend I had that time and weather co operated. I dragged the chaise out of the gargage and tossed the old quilt on it. Accompanied by my laptop and my knitting I spent a blissful Saturday sewing up Matt's sweater and watching Google videos on Ancient Britain. A very satisfying day!
I can finally cast on the Anniversay shawl. Now I realize I am approaching the dreaded 90% level on the "Tablecloth." Corinne had a great idea. If I commit to knitting at least one row a day on the daffodil it will be finished in 3 weeks....and I can knit in the shawl. Win win all around.
I will send the sweater off tomorrow with a ball band ( for washing directions)and a note explaining to my nephew that the creative process can not be governed by the weather. (see post below) He won't be able to wear this till the fall. Nothing like getting a pure wool sweater at the onset of summer.....oh well

One row a day is a great way to meet goals like that. I do it often with doilies that seem never ending. Can't wait to see how it looks when it's done!
Flashing a bit of leg there? :-). The sweater looks great and you'll be relived and happy to have it done I'd say. Corinne's suggestion is a good one - how long is one row taking you these days anyway? Have 2 quiet nights in Madrid before heading home Thursday afternoon - so expect a blog update in the next couple of days!
This one row a day is turning out to be a bit much. I am at work all day and it is taking me the evening to do a pattern row with no chance to work on anything else..boo hoo me.
