Have a good trip Mom and Dad

I finally looked at my pile of mail yesterday afternoon and there was a package from Wannietta. Inside were an amazing pair of socks that she knit for the store. Wannietta did a lot of sample knitting for the new book Knit 1 Below and these are a pair of socks from the book. She used Kaffe Fassett colours of Regia. Stop by the store because they look good in the picture (yes, I did borrow the picture from Wannietta) but great in real life. There are new colours of Regia by Kaffe Fassett arriving in the store next week.

Sunday was spent resting and I didn't venture out to the store to pick up the Rowan magazines. I was in the store on Monday and took them home with me. There are some fabulous designs in the books. I have started putting the books on the website as well as featured patterns from the books. This is Red Earth by Kaffe Fassett (knit in Summer Tweed) from the new Rowan magazine. I love this and might have to start it. I don't think the store will be busy today so it might get cast on this afternoon.

Today at noon my parents will be sitting on a plane to Vancouver and then onto Hawaii. They will be there for two weeks-I feel horrible for them. :) We went to Hawaii as a family for a month 33 years ago and they have always wanted to go back. We had dinner with them last night and were reminiscing about the trip.

Drive safe on your way to and from work today.
