what's nu?

==>> Yes, I am working on a project . . . okay, it's not Flying Geese . . . but that cool diagonal scarf at MLYS in McKinleyville, CA. It's really your fault, mi hija, because you wanted me to visit! And then . . . I could not help myself. I bought a skein of beautiful green variegated araucania yarn. The scarf is coming along nicely. I had all last week, travel to and from the east coast, to work on it! Only a few rows to go.

==>> And then . . . well, I may not return right away to the Flying Geese...because I got the beautiful mohair/silk yarn and Little Flowers to make the cute ruffled scarf.

==>> And then I'll start back up on Flying Geese. Whew! Pictures to follow . . . soon!

Yes, I am!

Had an impromptu knit/crochet along last week at work -- Debbie's almost finished with her shrug. She told me she forgot how to crochet -- so we went through Carla's tutorial again. Hopefully she remembers how to crochet this weekend and finishes the shrug! Because then her new project is the Lion Brand Romantic Bolero (http://cache.lionbrand.com/patterns/cgs-bolero.html) It's a pretty shell pattern ... and once she gets the hang of double crochet, it'll move along quickly!

So...even tho' I've only spent about an hour on my own Flying Geese afghan, I AM knitting/crocheting! Am trying to convince Lakeisha to start a project ... probably a scarf.
