Yesterday, despite helping make the boudin, I was able to get some amount of knitting done. The green pin shows where I started the day. I think that was about 5" of knitting. If I can get that much done today, I'll finish off the main part of the sweater. The sleeves will be quick. There's a crochet edge that is knitted around the neck but I didn't bring a crochet hook with me so even if I ...

Knitting Progess
The box Vince sent arrived yesterday afternoon. Very thankful for that! I started knitting on the white V-neck pullover and made good progress. Lots of knitting while sitting by the pool. Chad and Nicole came over to swim again last night. Both nights, they've stayed past midnight, which means Addie sleeps later in the morning and I'm up with more knitting time. The pattern is Simple Summer ...
Blue Sand Progress
This sweater started out being made from the Blue Sand pattern but now I've changed it enough that I probably should come up for a new name for it. Yesterday I finished the ribbing and binding. Before bed, I picked up the front band and collar stitches. There's a chance I could finish that today. I need a larger needle for the sleeves, which I didn't bring but if I can finish either the ...
Trip Projects – #5
This is getting comical because we all know probably nothing will get finished . . and there may not even be a lot of knitting. This is Stained Glass Cowl and I think I've made a bit more progress. I didn't even look in the bag to see but I would like to finish this some day. ...
The White V-Neck Sweater
This is a bad picture but it's dark outside, lighting inside is not great but I got the fronts joined and the sleeves off so it's straight knitting now.

Trip Projects – #4 & 5
Project #4 is Tegna, which is a short top with short sleeves, with a lacy design on the bottom. The lacy part is almost done. I think it will be quick once I get done with the lace. Project #5 is the Comfort Fade Cardi. The sleeves have been finished and all it needs is the collar, which comes down to form the button bands. This might be the first one I work on but . . maybe not. ...
