Do you expect to get some of the storm that hit Nova Scotia, or is that
expected to blow west?

In Labrador today, it is gorgeous! A fairly mild -7°C and sunny. THe ground
is sparkling white, but nothing is falling today, which is a good thing. We
have rehearsal this afternoon, which means that I will be able to knit for
most of the two hours, so I should finish the new baby's hat. All in all, a
good day!

Hope everyone else is having a good SUnday.

Katherine

A quiet day here. Unfortunately our local network at home is having problems
so I am on dial-up. Slow but works ok otherwise.
I just finished a shell out of a soft, furry yarn called Volare that I

got from
Elann. It is black. It was a simple pattern and will go under the evening
jacket I received for my birthday from DD. I hate knitting with that kind of
yarn because you really can't see what you are doing but this was pretty

simple
and fast. The good thing is that the result is warm and very light. It

hardly
seems like I have it on.
I am making a sweater for DH out of cotton yarn as he wanted something not too
warm - I am having some trouble with my right hand while knitting, though, and
it seems to bother me more with that project than others for some reason, so I
think it will take a while for me to finish.
I was pleased that the Volkswagen baby sweater I made for the WEC auction sold
well for a good price.
I know that people can get ready made things for less so was happy to see that
my contributions did sell and most did well.

Ah Judy dial up works as well, we read you loud and clear....LOL I always
use dial up, and it is much cheaper as well.

It is wet windy and rainy here. Good weather for a wood fire, some
reading, a cup of hot broth and my weekend cross word puzzle. I also got
a bit of braiding in. I started braids for two handwoven bags, I did not
get finished some time ago (not teling how long ago....LOL) I finished
one and started the other. Neat to get some things out of the way so I
can start the knitting of the sweaters for my two grand daughter for
Christmas. On the knitting machine, I hope there will be no hick ups.

Have a nice Sunday afternoon or evening for most of you

Els

Let's see, double it and add thirty...that's 44 degrees F, just about
what it is here in Maryland, and sunny, too (or it was when I first
started this and got distracted!).

I did a lot of lolling around with coffee and the Sunday paper, still
can't knit for very long. Sigh. Back to work tomorrow to see how
half-days at my computer go.

No, we are far enough north that we rarely get those storms. However, some
of my family and friends got hit. I will be calling them tomorrow to see how
they are all doing.
