Reflections: I enjoyed knitting this shawlette much more than the mind numbing Citron. I even kind of like it, though it has already been sent away as a thank you present. I enjoyed the sock yarn which was purchased years ago with all intentions of knitting socks. I lost interest in socks shortly after meticulously dividing the yarn into two balls. While knitting, I fell in love with the smooshy yarn; I look forward to using it again in a sweater.

Spokes also seems to like the shawl. He was more interested in my attempt to photograph myself than he usually is. My revenge:

The only spring showers April has yielded so far are of the snowy variety. Since ground has yet to appear, what will happen to the May flowers? Maybe summer will be canceled? The weather forecast seems to think so.

Spring in the Mountains

The lack of un-snowy ground forced me to set up Dave’s birthday present in the dining room. It took up the entire space, I can stand up in the tent! Too bad it is only a 3-season.
