HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

Happy Mother's Day to all!

Wow...it's May already. The kids are coming over for a cook out today. We're doing flank steak and salmon. (Kendra has never liked steak) Since it's MY day, I'll have her throw together a salad and figure out what the boys can make.

I'm almost finished with a 2nd sock. I started the first one last year. I needed a 'car' project and I found the 1st sock in a ziplock bag. Actually, the 1st isn't quite done. I'm to the toe decrease. When I get the 2nd sock to that point, I'm going to 'magic loop' them for the decrease so they're the same size!

I started yet another shawl. It's rectangular and, yes, it has 'damn yarn overs'. It's a simple 6 stitch repeat and I've put yarn stitch marker between each repeat. I'm sure it will be thrown in my purse quite frequently since the pattern is pretty much a no-brainer.

Off to do more knitting.
