I'm about to go on vacation and will make my sister that "Chicago" scarf from Stitch and Bitch, the one with the hole in it so you can tuck the end through it. And for myself, I'd like to do a couple things: first, finish a hat I've been making, and start a lovely warm weather sweater. I just put up something that I'd like to make, but it may be too hard.

I'm almost done with my sister's Chicago scarf -- seem to only work on it on vacation! And I'm also making a baby blanket for Blanketing DC with Love.

no, you guys are probably sick of MY efforts, i'm addicted to diigo.

i like yarn. i wish it were not so expensive. i wish all my money were not going to stave off disaster in my basement, so i could buy enough good yarn to make something pretty.
