This came out nice. It was my first attempt at cables in a scarf. I used a short DPN instead of a cable needle, which worked fine.

Mom, this is the thing I was trying to knit at the beach. I had to buy a 16 inch circular needle for this. It’s kind of weird looking, but it keeps your neck warm!

Recently went to the beach with my parents and Alice. Had a great time. Here are some pics.

Another weird hand pose.

Three girls at the beach. I look like a ghost compared to my Mom.

Mom and Dad relaxing at the beach house. I think my Mom is knitting here.

Cool little bog islands. I've never seen anything quite like them before.
Finally got this bag done. It’s not perfect, but I think it turned out fairly well. I’d never knitted an attached I-cord before. The idea is to use it to bring in vegetables from the garden.

I keep a cat calendar on my desk at work. A few weeks ago there was a cat that looked very similar to Cassis. It was a Burmese. I started reading about Burmese and found that Cassis has many if not all of the personality characteristics. For anyone who has met him, you know that he is extremely social (unlike the other two). He is also very vocal and loves to play “fetch” with toys. He sometimes brings the toy back to you around 20 times!

This is really good. It would be good for a cold winter’s day, unlike today!
