I haven't shown you my KAL that I'm doing over at Linda's for a couple of weeks because my cardi became attached and it started looking like a straight jacket. After frogging that mess back I ended up knitting in the wrong direction for a really long while. See what happens when you talk and knit? So back to frogging I went. Finally this week I'm back on track but I'm really thinking of making this a long cardi/vest so I can wear it while I take my long walks.
At first I was doubting my yarn choice but now I think it will be so cozy and I can see the lovely pattern clearly now. I don't think this is a sweater for a giant any longer but a chunky version of the exsisting pattern. I'll just keep knitting happily along.
On a different note completely....
Today I've gotten to realize one of my dreams and that is to give away all of the existing Elsa Beskow books I could get my hands on. Over at my children's book blog Jump Into A Book, I'll be giving away 19 Elsa Beskow books to one person/family. I have many more giveaways planned throughout the summer and fall. I think one of the best things in life is to play inside our books but the next best thing is to give them away. To find out all the details head on over to Jump Into A Book. Good Luck
