Usually I put only crochet related items on this blog, but had to make an exception for today. Ron is in Germany for 3 weeks so it is just the kids and I. Friday was also our anniversary and I received the roses then and the beautiful necklace today (Kelsey made the fabulous card!)...thanks guys...looks like I may renew your contract after all!
I finished and blocked my second "Sweet Pea" shawl for this week. With Ron in Germany for 3 weeks, I am getting in some late night crochet time. It is hard to really see the colors from this picture, but the yarn is varigated jewel tones including a deep green. Kelsey is wearing a bright red and it kind ogf masks the colors, but hey, I was happy to have a model!
I just finished the Sweet Pea Shawl from the SNB book! I love this pattern and am still deciding whether or not to add fringe. I may add some ribbon instead of yarn fringe...hmmm.
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth Then took the other as just as fair And having perhaps the better claim Because it was grassy and wanted wear Though as for that, the passing there Had worn them really about the same And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet, knowing how way leads onto way I doubted if I should ever come back I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence Two roads diverged in a wood And I took the one less traveled by And that has made all the difference Robert Frost
