I’m home from my vacation. I had a great time. Did a bit of knitting, reading, hanging out and I even went to a Keith Urban concert. I finished the second sleeve of Chamomile and casted on for the front. I also almost finished my first sock. Yep. I broke down and got some yarn and needles to do socks. I’m using DPNs, but it hasn’t been too bad. I can’t wait to finish it so I can start the second one.

I also received my copy of Rowan Mag #31. There are several patterns in it that I want to try. While on vacation, I bought the Family Circle Easy Afghans and my husband has already picked out which one he wants me to make for him. But I have to finish the one I’m working on, so he said I have to do 2 squares each night for the next week. That will finish off the squares, then all I’ll have to do is piece them together.

I’ve got photos of my two sleeves and progress on my first sock. Will post them sometime this week. I completely enjoyed my time away from the computer. I only came online once the whole week and that was just to check my email on Thursday. It was so nice. But that’s about all the news I have for now.
