Received my order from Knit Picks last night. Several skeins of the Jamieson Spindrift (lemon, leprechaun and royal) and Knitting In the Old Way. I swatched the lemon Spindrift and decided to order more for the shawl. And of course I couldn't just order that....so 9 more skeins of Spindrift, 2 skeins of K2C2 sport in a pale yellow and the Circular Solution will be in my hands in 7-14 days. I think it's K2C2, it's on sale and I've never used it and at 198 yds per skein it's a good deal. And don't ask why more yellow, last summer it was purple.

Sally's Favorite Summer Sweater is coming right along. I'll finish the front's open work tonight and then will move onto the opaque rows.

I have been enjoying the long evenings. After walking B and eating dinner, it's knitting, the newspaper and tv in front of the fire.
