Heading North

 I am all packed and repacked. As is so often the case, I changed my mind and took out things and replaced them with better things. I got out of bed last night and remembered a bunch of new quilts which just have to come with me. I'll label them when I get there.


The really important decision is the Knitting Project For The Trip. White? Yes, I need a white scarf and this one is called Pimpelliese and it requires paying attention, and a row counter. But so worth it. The yarn is 50/50 Silk/Wool fingering from wool2dye4.com and is luscious to knit. It is my favorite scarf, the Baktus, but with a nice lace edge knit at the same time as the scarf.

While I am not looking forward to the long drive, I am excited that I will be visiting fellow blogger Cindra, and staying with her tonight. WE are going to a wonderful restaurant, a rare treat for me these days, living so far from town. I am bringing produce from the garden...tomatoes, green peppers and one wonderful yellow squash which is secretly growing in my flower bed. Don't tell the bugs.
