Blocked

Ulmus is blocked and finished. I just love how the STR and Silkie teamed up to make such a soft, drapey fabric.

When my mom saw it, she grabbed it and wrapped it around her shoulders and cuddled with it. Hmmm, looks like I should start another one!

Happy 4th

Enjoy your holiday!

Not enough

yarn! I ran out before I finished the bind-off. I just kept knitting and telling myself it would probably be enough. Not quite. Not happy.


I sucked it up, started up an episode of The Office on my iPhone, ripped back two rows, and re-did the bind-off.


Happy now--Ulmus is ready for blocking. This was a really fun knit for me, and I am pleased with the color combination. I'm already thinking about knitting another.

Happy Father's Day

to the dads in my life

and the best dad ever.
