Cat Bordhi Was In Town

Well, in town if you count a two hour drive as being 'in town'. And who wouldn't to see one of our most famous knitting gurus? I missed her, but Isa, Carolyn and Kat attended and were suitably star struck. As Carolyn said " Only a knitter would understand."

I understand that Sally Melville is speaking in Peterborough, this Thursday night. For me, that's a three hour drive. But, maybe...

Or maybe I should stay home and work on Nimbus. Two sleeves and the back are done, and the left front is almost finished.
Such a quick knit. The stitches are forming perfectly which suggests it might be one of those rare knits that doesn't require much blocking. I'll know soon. I love the colour and if it fits, it will be a double 'yippee' when it's done.

When it's done, it will be on to 'Hey Teach'. A great summer sweater and - a rare change for me - I think it will be finished before the end of the season.

So, if anyone asks, my story is - I stayed home from Cat Bordhi to get a head start on my summer knitting. My story and I'm sticking to it. Right.

I think "Hey Teach" is so cute - I'm sorely tempted to try it but that style and shape of knit just doesn't suit my figure so I'm going to enjoy it vicarously through your version okay?
