It's the middle of the month already and I'm ready to begin The Sweater project. I paced around yesterday, waiting for the UPS truck. I was assured online that my yarn would arrive before the end of the workday on Thursday. Of course, it did, but not until 4:30 pm, so that made for a lot of road watching.
In the meantime I checked out the ideas we had for altering the pattern so it doesn't appear to "ruffle" at the bottom, which isn't a look most men prefer. (Thanks, Keepie). And I think we're good to go. I won't have to wonder what to do with my hands for the next few months methinks.
My sister is arriving for the weekend and we're preparing for our little journey, too.
I'll try to take some New Orleans pictures. (I know, I know, I should take some pictures of HERE, but it's just all white and grey. I can say that objectively, without the depression so common here in the winter.) Our winter has been an easy one so far, compared to the rest of the country. Or the world
, for that matter! The flooding in Australia! Snow all up the east coast!
, for that matter! The flooding in Australia! Snow all up the east coast! I'll keep you posted on the sweater progress, because that's most of what's happening now. I guess I'll still be dressing for cool weather, even in NOLA.
