This weekend was warm.
Cut offs warm – sitting bayside in the sun, feet propped high chatting with my sisters while a dozen sailboats float like dandelion fluff on the water. Two little Key West Doves cooing under my feet on the rocky shore. 7 kayaks paddling fiercely against the tide not even a stone’s throw offshore. Coming home for the first game, digging around looking for my circular 8s, pulling out straight 9s instead. Working a swatch with doors and windows wide open. Sun dappling through the gumbo-limbo while itty-bitty Palm Warblers flit between the hibiscus and the banana tree flipping their tails coquettishly at me when I step into the Florida Room. Chilled white wine for me, spiced Golden Monkey for Hal (like kissing &*%# potpourri). I now have 5 strong and sensual, golden and sparkling ales to savor.
My swatch is 1/2″ too big. Where are my circular 8s??? Does anybody remember what I was last knitting on them?
Oh my – I cannot imagine being able to wear cutoffs right now. And a banana tree! Sounds like paradise! I think I might be seriously jealous! I love the colour of your swatch and I wish I could tell you where your circulars are.
So gorgeous! Seeing your swatch makes me itch for a new project of my own!
Joe and I are very envious right now. We went to the beach yesterday too…in our boots, jeans, sweaters, hats, raincoats and gloves. Enjoy your sunshine and warmth!
yep, short weather here this past weekend too. and flip flops too. i love flip flops.
hope you find those knitting needles you’re looking for!
