miles to go

No photo of the knitting as half-promised yesterday. B and I made an unplanned trip today that ate up all of our morning from 8 o’clock on until almost 1 p.m, so I didn’t get much knitting done. I’m also becoming a little disenchanted with the sweater despite only being at the end of the yoke section. I’ve been looking up other FLS knit-and-show blog posts to try and revive the feeling I had when I first saw the pattern. I’m going to keep plugging away at it because it does look like such a fabulous sweater. If I hate the end result when it’s done, I’ll either rip it out and start over with different yarn or just start a second one anyway. So, pictures possibly tomorrow.

In the meantime, here are some gorgeous examples of the February Lady Sweater:

In other news: I’m sad. My younger brother, who works overseas and is only home for a few weeks at a time a few times a year, is moving his homebase to Nova Scotia. Beautiful province but so far away. We had to drive to Pointe au Baril to pick up his U-haul this morning and he leaves tomorrow early in the morning. Between his schedule and mine, I’m hoping I’ll get to see him at least once a year. He’ll be home (here) in July to pick up his car and then it’ll be up to me to visit. He left me a bottle three quarters full of Polar Ice vodka from his freezer. I asked him if I was to use it to drown my sorrows.
