Recent Inspiration
Travel-Ready YarnOh! So many things to do before we leave for Honolulu tomorrow. In addition to packing, I have to get the house ready for our house-sitters. It's always great to have visitors, especially when we won't be here! I certainly hope our guests enjoy their mini-vacation in Mid-City, L.A.!! Thanks again for taking care of the homestead!
Now, which project to take on our trip? I want to take something involving, yet small-ish. Our knitting guild is having a Knit-Along / Crochet-Along with the patterns, Klamath (Crochet) Shawl and Multnomah (Knit) Shawl. I have a perfect little cake of Sweet Georgia Yarns, Lace Weight in a beautiful aqua that will be perfect for this shawl! I'm going to start Klamath on the plane.
Other recent inspirations, all patterns found on Ravelry.

More patterns than I can get to have been inspiring me lately! Must be spring fever. Klamath looks wonderful. I'm obsessed with Flying Home shawl by Kat Coyle http://www.katcoyle.com/blog/2012/02/flying-home/and the Meadowlark Vest by Indigirlhttp://www.indigirl.com/blog/2012/02/knitting-spring-introducing-the-meadowlark-vest/
(Also, that same color of aqua/turquoise has been calling my name.) Safe travels!
Hi Ellen. That Sweet Georgia yarn is gorgeous. I am trying to make this: http://vannaschoice.lionbrand.com/patterns/L0577.html but, try as I might, I just can't get it to come out right. I really think the pattern has mistakes. I will try to channel my inner-Ellen and just work it out for myself. :D I hope you and Larry have a really safe and FABULOUS trip! Aloha!
Have fun Ellen!
I like that bacon and eggs pillow.
Mmmmm..bacon.
Reminds me of that bacon commercial for Jack in the Box. And the man is going to marry some bacon.
Cute!
