Twice in One Month

I had to take Peter to the train in Franklin yesterday. He's commuting to work in Boston this summer. I needed some thread to sew ribbon over the zipper I put in my Ribby Cardi. Where better to get thread than Franklin Mill Store. But I couldn't just buy thread. They have a bunch of pre-packaged fat quarters and yardage. This one jumped out at me. And I remembered that I had fallen short on yardage for the clutch so I picked up another skein of Lamb's Pride Bulky. It's not the same dye lot but at this point, I really can't be choosy. I can't see any difference.

I bought the Comfort to finish two projects I had started with the mondo bags of Comfort leftovers I got at my former place of employment-the pinwheel sweater and the Arabesque Throw. I knit another hexagon for the throw last night. I've been knitting them circularly eliminating the need to sew seams. And I also picked up stitches along the previous hexagon to eliminate sewing the hexagons together. The only thing I'll have to do is weave in ends. So far, so good.
