Happy Birthdays!!

May 21, 2008

This week is birthday week for Sunflowerfairy and Archiknist. We had cakes for both of them. One of the cakes is an ice cream cake from Ashley’s and one is vanilla cake with chocolate icing from Julia’s. YUM. And as one of the birthday giveaways, Sunflowerfairy had a little drawing at SnB for her “Shut p and Knit” mug and I won! :)

And I started another shawl to keep p with 2klace as I am pretty behind on this whole knit lace 51% of the time thing.

This is beginning of the Woodland Shawl. I actually had quite a few repeats done earlier, but after consult with Archiknist, we both decided that the 89 stitches the pattern called for is too small for a shawl, it was more like a scarf. So I frogged it tonight and re-cast on for extra 4 repeats for total of 137 stitches. we’ll see how this one goes. I’m using Schaefer Andrea again for this project as I have quite a few left overs and I really enjoy with the yarn. Plus the color is just gorgeous!

So David and I are going up to 1000 Islands this weekend to take care some wedding stuff, plus to see a house for potential vacation home. What are you doing for memorial long weekend???

    No Missburrows, it’s an Ashley’s ice cream cake. 10,000 times better than Carvel ever dreamed of being.

    Not even exaggerating.

    If you ever make it to CT, check them out.

    Glad you like the mug, Jenn. Happy that it will get some use. :)
