First off, thanks for all the get well wishes. They’re greatly appreciated. I’m getting a little better every day. :)
Now I should be resting, but I just had to post a progress report. I’m just in love with the way the Damson is knitting up. (Excuse the crappy photos. I’m still sick.)
The yarn is just perfect. The colors are so sublime. The garter stitch is so soothing.
I really can’t remember the last time I even knit garter stitch. For now, it’s the perfect medicine.
As is the little boy Sammy.
Have a great weekend, everyone! I’ll be home resting, knitting and playing Restaurant City on Facebook.
Don’t even get me started on how addicting those games are over there. I blame Megan for this one.

I cast on for Swallowtail today, t’will be a leisurely knit, as I plan to give it as a Christmas present. But it’s nice to knit lace again!
Yer Damson is lovely. Unrelieved garter makes my hands ache. I require to purl.

It’s ok, you can blame me. ;-)
At least you are having fun!
I am loving your Damson – it looks so soft!

Are you my neighbor in RC? Hmmm, I’ll have to check, and add you if you’re not.

I REALLY need to knit something with my handspun. Everyone else’s looks so nice and squooshy.

That yarn is knitting up wonderfully. It’s certainly making a beautiful Damson.
Yay for getting better! Also, yay for kitties!
And what is that skull thing? It looks cute.
