Payback's a Stitch

Hello on this very warm chicken quesadilla Saturday!

Today I present Page Two of our GNEYA PPT:


While the primary objective of this project was to finalize our itinerary (and help us determine the best travel path - this was way before GPSs and when we thought MapQuest was a miracle!), I figured since my parents wanted to know where I was every minute of the day when I was a teenager they might appreciate knowing where we planned to be during our yarn adventure!  (I think they were merely amused, but my mom did save this all these years, so there's something!)

I seem to recall that Oogyhubby was also on a trip of his own, so perhaps Neurohubby enjoyed knowing our whereabouts during this time as well!

So - interesting.  Walker House is now a luxury apartment complex (for an average of a cool $3,000 a month), and The Putney Inn looks about the same - drab on the outside, nice on the inside.  (For some reason this deck doesn't have any web links!)

Two of my MKAL projects are fussy enough at this point to require significant YouTube assistance.  Not as much fun, necessarily, but I'm definitely learning some new stuff!

My hydroponic herb garden has exploded once again and requires another harvest.  I've been using the occasional fresh stuff but also chopping up and freezing the rest (in extra-v olive oil!).  It's super fun to whip out a couple of "cubes" to chuck into something I'm making!  I may also attempt some pesto very soon.

Stay well, safe, and cool!

I stayed at Putney Inn sometime in the last year, and it was the same. There was a nice restaurant next to the hotel, but that is closed now. Green Mountain Spinnery is still across the street!

Colorful Booties and Socks

Image
It is the Year of Colorwork, but mostly what I've done so far is produce a few color ful items!  I've been making this baby bootie pattern for years, mostly from leftover sock yarns.  This particular yarn is what remained from last fall's Flamewalker Socks .  That these booties stand up all by their jaunty selves makes them particularly appealing. These are  Crazy For You socks.  They haven't told me yet exactly whom they are crazy for , but I'll let them ponder that for a while.  It appears I may have caught a bit of Knitting New England's Tangerine Tango  with all of these orangey colors!

Wingspan, Part I

Image
I have two skeins of Classic Elite Alpaca Sox yarn that absolutely refuse to become socks. They pool, they gap, they otherwise cry and carry on in all sorts of ways. So, they are becoming Wingspans instead. I finished the first one last night, and cast on the second one this morning. They are, indeed, a pleasurable and addictive knit!

Wedding Pillows

I've been busy, but I don't have much to show for it - yet. You will be seeing a lot of finished lace in the coming days, so stay tuned! In the meantime, here are two pillows that I dyed and knit for friends who are getting married next week.
