Don't Don't Don't Don't ...Don't You...Forget About Me
I say...La. La la la la. La la la la.
Enough already!
So will you miss me? I'm heading out to my sister's this afternoon until next Sunday. I will be scarce, as it's hard to get computer time when my delicious nephew and niece are running about screaming Cara, Cara, Cara!
I will probably have no time to knit either.
Met up with Cassie yesterday at Purl. I exchanged some yarn and brought home a Knitting Pure & Simple Sock Pattern (#216) and Nancy Bush's Folk Socks per Cassie's recommendations. We had a lovely time, as usual, although I think Cassie may have said I was boring. (see comments on this post.) Say it isn't so, Cassie, my sweet!?! ;)
Slow progress has been made on both School Daze and Picot-Boo, but I'm still not sure about the gauge on PB. I will have to measure it against my niece tomorrow to see if I need to rip YET AGAIN. Thankfully it's a really (super)fast knit.
I leave you all with this:
Overheard while I was on the phone with my sister the other day -
"Only ONE pair of underwear. ONE pair. Did you hear me? I said ONE PAIR OF UNDERWEAR!"
Ah's the joys of parenthood.
PS - Even though I will be away, I will be still be giving out memberships to K1R2. Just leave a comment here.

Ah the joys of being an Aunt (especially an Aunt Cara), I'm telling you there is nothing like it. :)
Have a wonderful time, and yes you will be missed (in fact I will try to remember that you are otherwise occupied so I don't swear repeatedly and hang your name in effigy)!
:) Cara

Love your purchases! And, how fun for you to meet up with Cassie in the BIG City. The exciting life you lead, right? :)

You will certainly be missed...have a fun, safe trip! Can't wait to hear about your adventures when you return.

Whoa. I didn't say you were boring. I said that I'd be boring by just droning through the events of my day.
Coffee with Cara was the most exciting thing I did all day. After that I just dithered on about my measly little pile of WIPs that everyone is now laughing at.
