Hello everyone! Today has been very productive. I've been busy writing knitting patterns and publishing them on my website (http://www.savvyneedle.com/). It takes a surprising amount of time to write up a pattern, but it's something I enjoy doing. Hopefully people will actually use them!
I also went for a nice walk this morning at the little municipal park here in Fairfield. It's next to their high school, and I took a stroll around their THREE practice football fields. I saw the actual football stadium too. These people are serious about their football.
After a quick trip to the grocery store to pick up more of the peppermint mocha coffee creamer (we went through a bottle in about 4 days - yes, it's that good!), I stopped to get a picture of what was probably at one point the Grand Dame of houses in Fairfield, but is now....well, take a look for yourself:
How tragic is this? The front door is gaping open and there's no telling what it looks like on the inside. So sad. I thought about you, Cima, when I saw this. It needs so much love, but you can tell how dramatically elegant this home must have been a long time ago.
Right now I can't show a lot of the knitting I'm working on (since some recipients read this blog!), but I did want to show you 2 baby hats that a friend commissioned me to make. I finished these yesterday and think they turned out quite well. :-D
Speaking of, I'd better get back to it! (After a hot chocolate break, though!)
