Happy Birthday Dad

Today is my dad's birthday. I can't tell you how old because that would wreck things for my mom :) He's still going strong. People continually tell Beth and I that we need to get him to relax. He loves his work! There is no way to slow him down.

We've been out for dinner and had cake. Beth did a very good job except that the icing was very sweet. Now I need to sit back with a tea.

Kim brought her Color Play Mohair Wrap into work today. She has made it through the first two balls.

We just finished taking pictures of Kim's shawl when Mr. Canada Post drove up the driveway with a box from Ann - the wrap that she knit as a store sample.

Pattern: Color Play Mohair Wrap from Churchmouse Yarns
Yarn: 4 balls of Rowan Kidsilk Haze Stripe
The sample is knit with 2 balls each of 357 and 359

The shawls are the same colours. It just shows that when double stranding yarns that are self-striping you can end up with different results.
