Yep, camnesia at its worst. Today, while Mom and Dad were at Graduation Take Two, I went over to Kim's to knit with her and Risa . . . plus Liam and the twins, who didn't knit but were all happy to play. It was a lot of fun, and it was nice to have a chance to drive around Mt Tabor. I see it every day, but have never made it past the post office. But, I never took a single photo.
Anyway, we sat in her charming little house and knitted, then we all walked to the park and let the kids run around and climb and jump and stuff, and then we headed back to Kim's, where it took about 20 minutes to get the twins ready to actually leave. (Well, they were having fun.) Afterward, Risa and I took the twins out for lunch . . . um, Risa? I hope I didn't speed off so fast that it looked like I was making a get-away . . .
I really was gone a lot longer than I planned to be. I had initially thought I'd be home around 1:00, not 3:00 . . . I mean, my parents made it all the way to Pennsylvania, sat through a 450-student graduation ceremony, stopped for ice cream, and still made it home before I did. But, who cares, right? I had a great time. It's NICE being able to knit with friends!!
Two nifty things to show you...
An amazingly helpful look at plying over at Abby's Yarns.
Then there are these great cupcakes! (Seen first over at Norma's) With a tutorial, too. That kind of attention to detail is always impressive.
And, oh yes, one other thing....
Finishing! Ack!! Sounds like a good day.

Gasp! That wouldn't be....SEAMING...would it? Because that would mean you have finished the hood by knitting at warp-speed!

It was definitely a good time for sure. And I'm not surprised about the camnesia. I'm continually suffering from that!
