Besides knitting, I've been enjoying my furlough days traveling or staying home, depending on the weekend. Furloughs definitely make going to work more difficult, though. I want vacation all the time!
Zion was great fun.
We hiked, saw my sister, got a tour of Best Friends, and nearly died in a whiteout through Dixie National Forest. What was I thinking, driving through 10,000 ft in April?
I started a pair of fingerless mitts while driving home, most of the knitting in the dark. I wanted to try smocking the 1x3 rib. I like them, but I need to work on my smocking.
Now I'm working on a Pasha, but I'm contemplating my next sweater. I think sweaters are what I feel like knitting these days. They definitely dominate my knitting fantasies. These top the current list: Laccaria, Audrey in Unst, Whisper Cardigan, or maybe a tank or short-sleeved sweater like Celandine, Camp Hoodie, or Love.

YAY!!! it's gorgeous! and i am VERY GLAD that you did not die. i can see how so much vacation would make it hard for you to go back to work. i thought of you today while doing an interview for an online magazine b/c i mentioned having a support network, like a cheerleading squad, and then i said: i actually HAVE a friend who was a cheerleader!!
I may have exaggerated a bit when I said we almost died. It was pretty scary, though.
It's crazy. I was at work three days last week but it felt like three weeks straight.
Any need for a visit from one of your cheerleader support team?
I am going through a sweater-knitting phase too : )
I am sorry you almost died. Those spring storms are the worst. I am glad you are still with us.
