clues 1 & 2 done!
This is the current lace project that I am working on. I downloaded the pattern free on Ravelry. It is called “The Vernal Equinox Shawl Surprise” . It was originally a mystery KAL and revealed in clue form until you had the entire pattern. Now, however, you can download the pattern in it’s entirety which is just what I did last night. As the caption says, I have clues one and two done. I am using jaggerspun’s zypher wool-silk yarn in the colorway of “Blue Ice” . I have had this yarn for nearly three years at the least! I have started and stopped atleast two shawls with it. I have finally found the right project for this yarn. The color reminds me both of the melting ice and of the color of these little spring flowers that I cannot remember the name of (I know, I sound stupid).

I have also just joined two more groups on yahoo and both of them are lace shawl/stole kal groups. They aren’t set up for any specific project, but within the groups they have kal’s for specific projects. One group is lead by a lace shawl/stole designer and it’s his designs we have kal with. Anyway, I have (as you can probably figure out) finally decided to embrace the lace!

On the personal home front: my group councelor is quiting at the end of this coming week. She is moving to another state. My therapist, at the same place as the group councelor, is also leaving but is doind so for a better paying job. (Who can realy blame her.) So needless to say I am dealing with some abandoment issues at the moment.

Kiddo is likely going to be moving in January. The details of this are still being worked/felt out. Until things are a bit more concrete in nature, I won’t be saying alot more than this cryptic couple of lines.

My 68 year old mother is having dificulties working with Instant Messenger. My 87 year old grandmother who, until last night, didn’t realize she could get online (still doesn’t know what to do online) talked with me on IM’s for nearly an hour last night! YOU GO GRANDMA!!!!!

Well that’s about it for now. I didn’t post daily, or weekly, but it wasn’t as long of a dry spell as before!
