It is a happy Monday around here because Lauren is almost back home. She is now in Beloit finishing up the Geology Field class papers. She should actually be here next Sunday or Monday. I received a text from her yesterday about 1:15 stating that they were on I80 and passing through Coralville!!! I told her to tell them she had to use the bathroom at our house, but it was too late :'( NUTS!!!
In the mean time, I have been knitting like crazy on a project. Its called Buttercup, a short-sleeved sweater for spring weather. Of course, its too hot now, but maybe early fall. Any who, I finished it last night. I made it with Berrocco Comfort DK yarn. The pattern called for Hempathy by Elsabeth Lavold. The instructions were easy to follow and it is top-down so I really liked that. I would like to try it again in the Hempathy or cotton-linen blend. Here is a picture of it after I soaked it and blocked it. Maybe some day I will actually wear it!
It is a stormy Monday here. Since we really need the rain, I am not going to complain. Next time I will try to remember to get some pix of our 'garden'. Its on the back porch and looks pretty good!
