cool down

wow, my last post was a awhile ago. i've been super busy the last couple of weeks because a good friend of mine was getting married and i was the maid of honor (and the only person on her side of the wedding party). they finally gotch hitched on saturday and it was so beautiful. the chapel was right by the ocean and you couldn't have picked a better day for a wedding in a glass church. the sky was so blue and it was just a really lovely thing to be a part of.

Wayfarer's Chapel

and now they are off in hawaii for their honeymoon, guests have left town and i am finally able to just relax. thank goodness the temperature's gone down this week. it was just horrid last week, with high nineties everday and no a/c in my room. seems like june gloom is trying to make up for it and i couldn't be happier. i do some fo's to share today.

Warshrag #1

pattern: warshrag from mason-dixon knitting

needles: us 5 bryspun circs

yarn: about half a ball each of sugar n cream cotton in a solid and ombre shade

notes: these are fun, fun, fun to make and i can see how they can be addicting. i love watching the colors change in the ombre and it was fun to see the pattern emerge by just slipping a stitch. i am not sure what i am going to do with it, since i really just think that washing gunky plates with a cotton rag sounds gross (i don't know why i can't get over it).

Warshrap closeup
"i'm ready for my closeup mr. de mille."

and far be it from me to let a lame little thing like not actually liking to use cotton dishrags to wash dishes stop me from making more of these fun babies. oh no.

cotton attack!

more warshrags to come! i have one more fo to show you all but i am pooped at the moment. i'll do it tomorrow. (random note - my neighbors are driving me a little insane. i don't know who it is but someone across the way from my building has taking to singing really loudly and talking at the top of his lungs at all hours. wtf? our new owners chopped down a bunch of trees between the buildings and i think that's why i can hear him better than ever. ahhhh!)

and congratulations jana and kevin!
