frequent knitter miles

Scarves as of travel time Friday evening:

Three balls of cotton angora knit and I decided it's long enough and bound off. It's twice as long as the longest Lego construction in our house - that's a total of 68 inches acording to the sheep measure.

Two hanks of each color of the cotton stria and the jilly scarf is even longer! The points needed to be blocked out flat though.

On the road to NYC:


there goes that crazy Fung Wah bus


sockapal-2-za sock underway!

Have a great trip! Yeah, what is with that crazy bus anyways... You can't drive down to NYC without passing at least a few of those!

Hi...finally catching up on my bloglines as I've been w/o a computer, but finally figured out how to check email remotely with dh's laptop...I'm whole again. I love your Ruffles scarf...I'm knitting one for someone and am not sure it looks 'right'...would you mind if I sent you a few dig pics of it to get your input...thanks so much...

I just love going on your knitting adventures! Hope your gift recipients appreciate all your efforts! Just got back from Stitches Midwest and am starting two new projects (both from GreatYarns) and can hardly wait to see what jumps in your hands to buy!

I love your Ruffles scarf! I've started one and it's now sitting in a bag, untouched, but seeing yours? It might repalce all my other WIPs, who knows?

And the candy striped Jilly scarf makes me want some Bob's Candy Canes. Mmm, candy canes in the drugstores signals winter!

Those socks look beautiful!

I love the cami and the striped scarf, although I can't imagine how long it must've taken you to weave in the ends of the latter.
