spring!

I just wanted to jump in and say a quick hi. I've been enjoying the spring weather, which has distracted me from my knitting, and also cleaning up like crazy yesterday and today since the in-laws are apparently coming for the weekend. fun. at least I was able to hang out with tom the first half of the day today, which is a rare treat. it was so nice to be able to sit out and have lunch under the sun. you know it's spring when all the restaurants have outside sitting all of sudden.
I hope I can sneak some knitting in, but if not at least I know what I'll be casting on for next. I'm taking alli's suggestion and knitting the hypoteneuse stole using the summer spun yarn. (alli, I already emailed you but just in case, email me your address so I can send you the bamboo!)
for the rest of you, thanks for your pattern suggestions! some of you must think I'm smaller than I really am though. as great as some of the other patterns were, 700 yards would definitely not be enough for my size.

Glad that you have spring now too - it's been great here for weeks, tulips up, everything green, and then pow - yesterday we had snow. (go figure)

I KNEW your comments would be full of "WHERE'D YOU GET THOSE SHOES?!!" What a tease.

I love these shoes.
It's hard telling what size someone is based on even detailed photos online. I tend to be more generous with other people, assuming that they are smaller than they are, because that's how I want people to look at my pictures.

Okay, so I guess I'm not the only one loving those shoes... ha! Glad you're enjoying some nice weather!
