Blocking

Last night we went to Niagara Falls. The water was crashing really hard and looked great with the lights. The Falls are such an amazing sight. I think we take them for granted because they are so close.

I just blocked the Inspira Cowl.
I used the new scent Yuzu from Soak. Tart citrus and crushed eucalyptus. My kitchen smells great.

I have it laid out on a Shamwow. It really soaks up the water so the cowl will dry faster.

Today is a busy TV day. The Daytona 500, finals of the golf match play and then The Amazing Race.

The Daytona 500 is finished and I was busy during the race.
I couldn't resist. One project done means I can start another one. This is Eos. The yarn is Rowan's All Seasons Chunky and the patten is in the All Seasons Chunky Collection.
I talked about the Knitter's Frolic yesterday morning. My goal is to wear this at the Frolic. Very doable. I am almost finished the first ball. If I get moving it should take less than a month.
Mr. Melo wanted in the picture. Mr. Roko was sniffing around my work but didn't show his face for the camera.

It is going to be an interesting episode of The Amazing Race tonight. Two teams are going to be starting a long time after the others. The show always tries to bunch them up but I'm sure they didn't think they would have that problem this early in the season.

Mom and dad are heading back to Myrtle Beach this week so we have been watching the weather. It looks like we could see lots of snow on Tuesday. Right now I am reading 15-20cm (6-8"). YUCK!! I'm ready for spring.

Snow or perhaps rain! Love your pets - they are such cute guys.

Julie,
I am currently working on the Eos as well. The directions for the sleeve increase are making me crazy, your sleeve looks good and in the proper proportion. I'm about to increase at each side every 3rd row until I reach the number of stitches I need. I'm just frustrated with the directions. Thanks.
