Still playing catch up.  Please bear with me.

We are so NOT enjoying this heat! So far it’s only been into the 90s. I hope we don’t hit too many days of 100+F. I so will not like that.

Class Options. Is anyone interested in a class on knitting a toy like a doll, dog, bunny or kitty? If so let me know so I can schedule something.

Ken had carpal tunnel surgery at the end of June. I did not hold any classes or Frog Ponds for the first 2 weeks of July.

Give me credit.  I'm trying to catch up!

I Have Set Aside a Few Patterns for My Review. I’m excited for this year’s KAL (Knit Along.) I will plan this geared toward my beginner students. Have you made a sweater before? As I look through my patterns I’m looking for good clear lines. Are you interested in a KAL?

Still Playing Catch-Up.  *Sigh*

This week I will be looking for my next project. This will be a cardigan for a very special friend. I can’t say who it will be but it is long overdue.

Not Caught Up But Working On It!

Estelle came by last weekend. We had lunch and hung out watching a Captain America movie. I gave her their belated chocolate bunnies and a couple of fun kites. No, I didn’t say. “go fly a kite.” The wind has been perfect for kites though and she was excited to get them.

Bear with me as I try to get out from being behind.

We had a quiet Easter. The kids stayed home. Estelle has not felt good the past few weeks from allergies. I have had sinus allergies the past few days as well. Brandon & Terry Ann stayed local to their place. Ken did yard work this weekend. He HAD to. Our lawn was almost 2 feet tall!

Things have finally slowed down to normal. I never thought I would be so glad for normal.  When I finish writing this, I will sit down with a peach iced tea, feet up on the ottoman and my knitting.  I hope you’re getting some knitting time in today too.

Still playing catch-up.  Can't you tell?
