amazing how time just slips away from you. i have all these blog posts hanging out in my head, but by the time i actually sit down for the evening, i can only concentrate on mindless TV and/or knitting…
I have been knitting. I finished up a long-lost project last week. The project actually wasn’t lost, just the pattern. My mother found it in her house. Odd spot for my pattern, especially since I hadn’t actually taken this project to CT, but, oh well, at least it was found.
However, since it’s a year later, it will no longer fit Thing 3. It will most likely fit Cousin 3, who’s not yet 3. I think one reason I wasn’t so sad that the pattern had disappeared was that I realized it would not fit Thing 3 even last year.
Here’s the dress:
It’s from a BSA pattern, and I’ve raveled the deets.  I’m not the hugest fan of the dyed cotton, but I like how it knit up here. I think the dress will suit Cousin 3, especially as she (along with my sister, BIL and their other two Things) move off to Hong Kong later this summer for an extended assignment. It’s hot in Hong Kong. All year long.
Christina at the store has been busy as well. With this:
can you tell which one is actually supposed to be on the beach? Well, neither can I, except the one on the left is wicked heavy. Because it’s filled with more than air. It looks adorable though!
