road trip

The blanket is almost as far as it was before and I'm much happier with it now. The first half isn't so blandly uniform, and there won't be a stark mismatch at the centre this way.

This morning my sister and I head to Ottawa for a couple days. Too bad the weather is not co-operating - unseasonably cold, rainy and thunderstorms. Not exactly the best weather for strolling and enjoying the Tulip Festival. So, just in case, I've programmed the addresses of a few Ottawa area yarn stores into the GPS.

And figuring that we'll be sharing the driving, I've packed my sock-knitting. Pretty sure I can finish the leg, knit the heel flap and turn the heel in a 5 hour drive.
