On the Needles

I have been absent from the blogging world for a few weeks for a very good reason.  We have a new grandson who lives in VA.  Little Mr. M joined our family 2 weeks ago.  The Big Guy and I drove from MA to VA for some serious baby holding time.  It was heavenly.  While in the car I was able to apply a binding to a quilt and work on my Sophisticated Traveler.  The color of the yarns used are more grey than the photo.



 

 

Before we left on our road trip, I finished the Never ending scarf.  I purchased the yarn from the Loopy Ewe in 2012.  It had always been intended for this project

On the Needles

One week has gone by and no new yarn!!!  Yeah for me.  I purchased the yarn for a never ending scarf back in 2012.  I have made definite progress this week.  It doesn't require a lot of attention.  Since I don't have much of the light grey, those stripes will be narrower.

 

I cast on Sophisticated Traveler with some Plucky Knitter Yarn that I had purchased last year.
