Layette Set #38

I've been steadfastly sticking to my goal of knitting at least 2 hours a day on Margaret. It's coming along very slowly. Yesterday I had to unknit 9 rows-a whole days worth of knitting, because I discovered a horrible mistake. A missing bobble, knits where there were supposed to be purls, and purls where there were supposed to be knits-all in the same row. Ugh.

The weather was so beautiful this past weekend that Ruth decided to shove all the snow off the deck, then I swept it. We dragged the cushions out of storage, and set the deck furniture up. I spent a couple hours each day sitting in the warm sun, knitting. It was wonderful.

Despite all the time I've spent on Margaret, I managed to get Layette Set 38 done. Just in time. I've got KnitWits this week.
