I'm writing tonight from a hotel room near the Dallas/Fort Worth Airport. Yee-hah! I'm at a conference, and we had a banquet tonight at the Historic Stockyards in Fort Worth. Of course, I didn't take my camera! So I'll have to regale you with some funny signs I saw along the roads of DFW:
- TCU: Horned Frogs Explore
- Lt. Ralph Swearingin for Justice of the Peace, Tarrant County
- Bud Sellers (what do they sell exactly? it looked like used cars, but who can be sure?)
- Awesome Transportation (across the road from Bud's, which might explain the *awesome* name of this limo service)
I guess that's enough giggles for one night. Of course, air travel and hotel rooms mean only one thing: copious knitting time! I am working on the Green Gable top from Zephyr Style. After a few false starts (those pesky YOs!), it is swimming along:
I love this yarn! It is sooo bright - I even toned down the color a bit before posting this photo, so as not to blind you all! I think I bought way more than I need for this project, so hopefully I can exchange the remainder for a different color of this yarn to make another cute spring/summer top. On second thought - I should probably see how it wears first.
Anyway, not too much else to report here. Hope you are all enjoying the spring which has come your way, whether a lot or a little!

Ah, Texas. I think you can see and hear lots of things there that you wouldn't anywhere else. That color is going to look absolutely stunning on you!
texas is an interesting place - it's like they want to be their own country or something!
btw, for my pattern drafting, i do it all longhand. in the past i have used a program available from the knitting fiend, but i think it's easier to just do the math - but then again i was always a math geek!
Oh! I love the color -- you are going to look so fabulous! Knit faster!
