A huge heartfelt thankyou to everyone who has emailed me and left messages on the blog. I just don’t have it in me to respond to you all right now but know that you are all in my heart for your kindness and support. It really does help to have support even from those of you I have never met.

And since this is a knitting blog…

Let me present to you, Amy’s Basic Cardigan. Amy from Indiknits and Make One Yarn Studio designed this sweater as a basic cardigan. OMG I love the pattern AND the yarn. Curious Creek Oban. GO AND GET SOME. I have actually ordered more for whenever the LYS places its order. And to top it off, Get this. It is my SECOND finished project in a month. The first month of 2007. That means my goal of finishing 12 projects this year is that much closer to being complete. AND I actually knit something for myself and I like it!!Thus, Not a Gift KAL, has actually been successfully completed (amazing since I never seem to be able to complete a KAL).

I have a new sweater on the needles. I am hoping to be done it within the next two weeks. It has been my “lunchtime” knitting project. I’ll show pictures of progress when I have the time to take some pictures.

And. I’m back at work. The distraction is good. Yesterday was the first day that I actually picked up the phone to call Dad and realize that he wasn’t going to be there. It gave me a cold hand around the heart feeling. I know this is the first of many such events that will occur and each one will get a little easier!
