It was a wet, rainy day so we met at my house to keep us out of the damp in Woodland Park. Leslie’s daughter, Tammy, was in town and came to knitting with two of the grandchildren, Grace and Alex. I’m not sure how thrilled Alex was to be with us. He was a good sport, though, to put up with a roomful of laughing old women!
Alex amused himself playing with his phone. Tammy and Julie join in the party.
Now, Grace fit right in. She brought her knitting and made some progress on a scarf. Good job, Grace! After the meeting, she told her grandmother that we didn’t seem ‘that’ old. Ha!
A new knitter! Yay!
Linda was just starting a baby blanket for her grandson (to be born in the fall). She knit several blocks together and then will join them and face the back of the blanket.
For a little baby boy!
Carol is knitting crowns to go with her granddaughters’ tutus. She is beading them as she knits and they will be adorable. Here’s one now:
Princess Carol.
Purple is finished and red is coming along.
Julie brought her mohair curly scarf. I think this is beautiful. So light and airy.
It’s a great color, too!
A hiking friend of mine had dropped off a wick-away hiking hat to see if I could use it. It’s a ‘one size fits all’. Well, I’m here to tell you that one size doesn’t fit all! At all! We had quite a discussion about it and everyone tried it on. Definitely does not fit all.
It fit Tammy and looked great on her.
Was WAY big on Grace!
Alex joined in. He’s very cute.
Didn’t fit Leslie very well.
Looked pretty good on Linda!
I think that’s Julie under there.
Looked good on Mary!
Too big for my little pinhead.
Just right for Carol.
We had a lot of fun with the hat. It went back to it’s rightful owner the next day. We’ll try Woodland Park again next week, Castoffs. Until then, keep those needles blazing and wish for less-than-blazing temperatures.
