Ups and Downs

Just when you think things are looking up, a big wrench gets thrown at you and hits you square in the side of the head. Like WHACK!

I was all excited. I finally finished those doggone Regia socks. You know the ones....those evil grey ones that have been haunting me for a while. Well finally they are finished! Yay!

Thankfully they fit me better than the crappy sock blockers that I have. If nothing else, these will be worn a lot. I am just so happy that they are done.

Now for the crash and burn part. This morning I woke up to a message telling me that there were errors in the written part of my Sweet Alyssum pattern. What a downer. I thought we caught them in the test knitting stage. Well.......um, WOW, we definitely didn't! So, if you have copied the pattern, you may want to go back to Crystal Palace as soon as the corrections are posted and copy the modified version. Both sections 1 and 2 have errors, but the charts are fine. Talk about embarassing! I feel so bad. A nice gal named Amy brought them to my attention and I spent most of the morning going through the pattern with a fine-toothed comb. My sincerest apologies to anyone that struggled with it.

I am working on another design too. It is looking beautiful so far. Wanna sneak peek?

This is being triple checked right now lol!

We had ANOTHER snow day today. The kids were home again and we stayed put as much as possible. There were tons of accidents and the visibility was horrible. The kids were thrilled and so was Brodie.

He loves having everyone home. Here he is giving The Sporty One a big kiss. Awww. Look at that little tongue.

Stay safe everyone!
