Something Different

In my last post I showed you this...

But I wasn't feeling "the lurve" and so last Saturday I ripped it all out and decided to work the yarn in a new pattern. I decided on Butterfly Shawl (yep that's a Ravelry link so if you knit or crochet you shouldn't have a problem). Now I'm feeling the lurve! I love this new pattern and have about 14" done. Here's a little glimpse of how it looks now.


I think that the yarn really shines through on this one. Oh the yarn is from Twisted Fiber and I love the colors! It was a gift from someone who apparently really likes me. I don't know who sent it, but I do know I love it and will love this shawl.

Yesterday was the first day of spring and also Midnight Knit at my LYS. We did something special and handpainted yarn. I decided to use Cascade Heritage sock yarn and loved thinking about what colors I wanted to work with. I decided on teal, lime green and fuchsia. Not my normal colors but sounded like spring. Here's what I ended up with

I call is "Bunny on Tequila"

I started a new project yesterday. A friend wants a mobius scarf like one of mine so she decided on yarn and I'm knitting it for her. No pictures yet, but it's in blues. 

Tonight after dinner I finally got the Wii Balance Board hooked up and started using it. I tried some Yoga, some Strength training, some Aerobics and even some Balance training. I'm hoping that I can meet the goal I set today. Check back in 2 weeks to see if I manage to meet it.

I think that's about all that's been going on. Hope everyone has a great week!
