Mondays Set the Pace

 I got the new yarn on the needles and managed a few rows!  It is a very satisfying knit this entrelac!  I am using slightly larger needles, 8's, because this yarn is worsted not dk weight.  I cast on the same number of stitches, 100, and it still takes an hour to go across a row-this is not a quick project but sure is a good knit!
 Dad is puttering in his gardening space.  This area doesn't get any rain-it has an extended eave that blocks rainfall so he has worked out a solution for now and then to pass the plants on to me to babysit until they are down her again!  It is a very welcoming sight now!
Mom and I whipped off two more quilts.  I need to get some more frame quilting time in the schedule!

    The blanket is so pretty...love Grandpa's new solution to that space; it looks so tidy and inviting now...and if the quilts are still on the frame when I come, I'll take a few passes on them, too, and between us we'll have it done in no time! :)
