I'm so excited - we're throwing caution to the wind and getting in the car tomorrow for a weekend ROAD TRIP! This means fresh air, fun side trips, new yarn stores to explore and lots of hours in the car dedicated to knitting.
I've set myself the task of finishing the ivory sweater, my own design socks and at least start sewing together the pieces of the turtle. So, I hope, I'll have lots of FOs to show off next week.
Oh yeah! Where are we going? For those of you who don't already know, I live in Vancouver, BC. We're going to a lake called Logan Lake, south of Kamloops, BC. It's about 3.5 hours drive - give or take traffic jams in and around Greater Vancouver.
And, I don't have to cook for this glorious mini vacation. We're booked into a B&B, not a cabin, this time. I hear you - more time for knitting!

Gasp! We are leading parallel lives. I went away for the weekend and stayed at a bed and breakfast by a lake and went to a yarn store! Of course, I did a lot of knitting, but I didn't quite meet my ambitious goals. Can't wait to see your FO's!
