The Restaurants of Kenai AK, with a little Sightseeing and Knitting
As previously mentioned, this past week I took a work trip with a coworker to Kenai, AK. When I look back at what I did other than work, mostly it involved eating in wacky restaurants, which is one way of keeping yourself occupied. 🙂 We drove down on Monday afternoon, enjoying the full range of… Continue reading The Restaurants of Kenai AK, with a little Sightseeing and Knitting
Back Home
Sorry for the radio silence the last few days – I had a whirlwind trip to Kenai AK for work this week. I will have pictures to share of the sights and some fun restaurants as soon as I catch my breath. I did get quite a lot of knitting in during the evenings –… Continue reading Back Home
This Week’s Trip
This week’s work trip is to scenic Kenai Alaska! Yesterday afternoon a coworker and I drove down from Anchorage (well, she drove). We had a typical mix of weather from rain squalls to sunshine, and it ended up being a nice day! I didn’t take pictures the whole way, as it’s a couple hour long… Continue reading This Week’s Trip

I have been bringing it along with me to work on at lunch, and also on the ride into work and home again, and… Continue reading Gray Cardigan has a Back
Dolores Enhancements
For the moment, Dolores and her wardrobe are my weekend project, and the Gray Cardigan are going to be my weekday thing. This weekend I fixed her eyes and added a bit more wool to the top of her head… I like her eyes much better – before they were a little uneven and didn’t… Continue reading Dolores Enhancements
The Gray Cardigan Progresses
I’m making good progress on the back so far – have gotten up to the armhole decrease already! When I was originally thinking about this sweater, I thought I might add a little textural interest by doing a little blip of purl stitches here and there. However, the thick/thin nature of the yarn is already… Continue reading The Gray Cardigan Progresses
