Francie the Cruiser
I went to Seattle last week for business and for the first time in forever I actually knit while traveling! I think partly because I’m enamored with the sock and partly because I had a lot of time on my hands.
This pattern is bloody brilliant and I adore the arch shaping! I’m anxious to get the first sock done so I can try it on and see how the shaping hugs my foot.
The best part of my Seattle trip, by far, was hanging out with Sundara (and as an aside, don’t you just love her new website)! We did a little yarn shopping and went out for drinks – it was great fun. And she was so nice to provide me with a little yarn fix!
Gorgeous Sock Yarn!
And scrumptious silky merino.
Nobody does color like Sundara.
Today is the first installment of our work lunch/knitting group. It’s actually open to anyone who wants to do anything crafty, and since it was my idea, I hope we have a good turn out. I’ll let you know.
Summer has finally shown up in Wyoming. Yesterday it was in the 70’s and word is that it will get up to the 80’s today, which I don’t really believe. But anything is better than the cold and snow we had last week.
Have a great day!
Stephanie
