Yesterday was awesome. Made a day trip to Branson and got the rest of the thread for the butterfly lap quilt, barring one skein of the green that I need three of. I'll have to get that one on the next monthly day trip up. Had lunch at Denny's which was yummy, and also while at Michael's getting the thread, I got a bit of sock weight acrylic yarn that is a new to me kind from Red Heart. It's really soft and the colourway is called "Tidal," all in shades of blue, so I think it will make some interesting socks. And in the mail ... my 6" bamboo double points from Amazon that range all sizes from 0 to 15! In sock sets of five needles instead of the standard sets of four. Five makes it easier, so that your instep is on two needles, and so is your heel, which is a blessing when you are turning the blasted thing, because it helps avoid gusset holes. The fifth is the working needle, the one that the new live stitches go onto as you work, so you always have four needles with stitches and one without. But it was a long day and today was really fun, since I spent a lot of it sleeping through the worst of the heat. I woke up just when it drizzled for a little bit. Not enough rain, but it's still looking like it wants to try, and we have 30% chance of good rain here. I really hope to get a house in/near Harrison area when I'm ready to buy, becuase lately, they're getting it all and I'm dry as a bone up here! Waiting till it cools down a bit more before making dinner. Green beans, mashed taters and gravy, and picked up some new brats from Johnsonville that sound good - cheddar and bacon! Hugs, all!
