The weekends have been crazy! Two weekends back, Dad’s retirement party in NH (family & friends, or just if you care to see, pics are here); last weekend a family wedding in Atlanta. Dad flew in to RDU and I drove (Poor Tad stayed home to dogsit), so not much time for knitting - but in little bits of time at the hotel, I knitted up ChiChi pieces (all told, a little over an hour of knitting!) A little felting will happen tonight, then we’ll see how she comes together. I’ll save pattern details for when she is complete, but in the meantime, go see what the author is doing to support her alma mater and help out if you can.

This weekend, a concert in DC, and the following? SHEEP & WOOL!! We are not usually so busy, but things just kept coming up - this weekend I’ll have my partner in crime again though :) Been missing him.

    Can’t wait to see your felted Chichi! And thanks for the Hokie love :)
    PS. I love the merino tencel you were spinning in an earlier post. Simply breathtaking!

    Sweet ChiChi! I need to do some fun projects like that to get away from the swatch monster.

    And that silk - mmmm. Are you stopping at singles or will you ply?

    I planted a Jessamine vine this weekend and named it after you…

    How will we run into each other in MD? We won’t get there til after noon….
