Done with August!

Though they didn't come with me to China, the squares were just what I needed when I arrived home on Saturday. I managed to catch an awful head cold (on the flight over, very likely) so I wasn't up for much of anything. I settled in on the couch, tuned in to some good soccer and knitted away. By mid-afternoon, I was done.

I love the green color (willow, I think) and the patterns were great! I'll update the post with pix when I get home from work and re-up on the decongestants. :-)

Updated 8/23 with pix of the blocks. Closeups on my blog

Yarn has arrived!

I came home yesterday to a skein of the beautiful green yarn sitting on my porch. I also love the point protectors that came along with the package! I've got a couple of things on the needles that I need to finish up this week but expect to start either over the weekend or next week.

The new patterns look lovely - I'm excited to see how they turn out!
