We’re home! And it was a very nice trip – I like visiting my mom. I did finish the last purple sock in the car on the way home (JOY). And M brought me some cake from his lunch meeting.

Photographic Evidence of the Completion of the Purple Striped Socks.

I would start on a new pair for M, but I need my #1 circulars (well one of them) to put the bands on the Grey Vest. That’s right, thanks to some knitting time at my mom’s house, the front of the vest is completed. Now comes the blocking. And swatching! I think I will make the Fluffy Sweater (Vintage Knits) next, or maybe the brown one for M, or maybe a sweater for which I haven’t even ordered the yarn! I am full of possibilities.

There is another Tyrolean Cardigan in the works: Laurin’s! She’s using Young Touch “Estelle” in a copper color. I can’t wait to see how it turns out. I also like the name of her site – supurlfluous – get it? Wah ha!

Did I mention the cake? I am going to eat it while I browse the new Knitty.
