A tisket, a tasket...

Finally! I've emerged from the never-ending garter short rows on the Kleio shawl

Lace - here I come!

I know some people who love knitting garter - they find it relaxing.... they can just zone out and knit. But for me, I seem to want to zone out so far that I almost fall asleep. I'm so glad I'm ready to start the lace section.

But... what's this over here....

It's the yarn caked up and ready to cast on for Princess Franklin (but in scarf form)..... yes..... miles and miles of MORE garter stitch.... what the hell am I thinking?

And like my little yarn basket? It was part of my Christmas present from my brother and sister-in-law. It contained a whole bunch of lovely bath goodies.... but honestly, as nice as they were, I was just really stoked about the basket. Even my SIL (who knits) confessed.... she really didn't care about the bath stuff in it... she bought it because the basket was so cool.

I think we've been spending too much time with our cats....
