Weekend Wrap-Up

And what a great weekend it was.

Wonderful Guy treated me to Valentine's roses and we had a great meal out on Friday. Saturday we ran errands and stuff. Sunday we headed to the mountains. And today we finished up taxes along with more errands. Including a walk in the sunshine and 55 degree weather, with Best Dog Ever.

So there were questions about the on-going projects.

And where there are questions, I feel the need to answer!

Q:I just want to know how you got two ginoumous projects going at the same time? And both with a million stitches?
A:Uh...necessity...and crazy obsessiveness.

Q:Is that from a pattern? Or are you making it up as you go along?
A:Both. Mason-Dixon Knitting are responsible for the nugget of craziness, but I have not followed either their colors or pattern.

Q:I love it, is it for my b-day?
A:No. It is not! (Silly Daughter....)

Q: how large will it be??
A: Right now, it is about 47 inches square, and it will grow until the yarn is used. I hope it will be another 12-18 inches more on each side. Maybe I hope that. That's a heck of a lot more knitting.

Thanks for all the positive comments. Gosh. You all are so kind!

And tomorrow it is back to work for this one. I am looking forward to having knitters over tomorrow night.

I wondered if the roses topping your blog were for valentines day. They are beautiful. Love, WS

Ah I thought it was Mason Dixon, I just bought this book. It's lovely. My sis is trying to attempt her first blanket. This might be to much for her first time. I thought it would be good because its all garter stitch. I am going to try to talk her into to it.

    ...to my humble effort. Thanks for taking the time to stop by, and I hope you find something mildly interesting, slightly amusing, barely creative, or at the very least, not too terribly trite.
