Scenes from the Plucky dock, July – 2006. Cannot.wait.for.summer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here Sam is, thinking he is king of the lake, or at least the dock.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In knitting news, I started knitting my Rosie yarn into this  pattern from Sandra. Great pattern Sandra! And, it looks like I am going to have company knitting these –  wannabe  and I are going to make sure we finish these socks – both of them! Anyone else want to join in? (updated: I have completed a few inches of the leg of the sock – what a fun herringbone pattern……)

Now for the next  ”big” project.  This has caught my eye – the Rectangle Shawl    from Blue Sky Alpacas, knit in the suggested yarn, in the colorway Peapod. What do you guys think? Seems like a good  next lace project and not too frilly. After much discussion with the snob  a few weeks ago we both ordered the Peapod, then I talked with wannabe  (she was having some clapotis angst)  and she liked the idea too, so it looks as though we are having a little BSA knitalong – how fun is that? From the UK to the American West with a stop in the middle. What fun!

And, of course, in between all of this, finding time to dye, blog and knit more baby hats.
