anyone watch BG? I'm totally addicted. I am convinced now that Kara is one of the 5 unknown Cylon "skinjob" models.
People have commented on the wine. I joined the Ridge wine club and I think their Petite Syrah is fabulous. The 2001 was my fave. Ridge is a local vineyard and since real estate is so frackin' expensive here, the Cupertino grapes make the Monte Bello--a mere $200/bottle. Yikes! The other grapes come from Sonoma and Paso Robles and that's where my Ridge wine is from--not the fancy stuff.
And, back to the knitting content. Have tried my hand at some lace--the Argosy. It's the perfect pattern for the West Valley Alpacas handpaint that had been marinating in the stash since Stitches West 2004...
Say goodbye...since I found a random wonky tendril that I knit accidentally. It's going to the frog pond and then I'll wait for some quality time with the chart to start over.
As for sweater news...it's been 80 degrees of late. Of course, this has motivated me to work on my 100% wool sweater. We have a right front done! This was my first foray into the Japanese Short Row shoulders on the theory that I will do a 3 needle bind off after I complete the back. Wish me luck. Thank goodness for Nona's tutorial.
Or Kara could be an early hybrid. We don't know who her dad is, after all...Anyway, I love those West Valley Alpacas folks, and that color is lovely! Hopefully it won't be in the frog pond long. :)

The Argosy looks good, bummer you have to frog it! Just take you time knitting the sweater we'll be back down below 80 in just another 7 1/2 months or so and then you'll be good to go! I love the color.

your sweater looks lovely! okay. I hope you forgive me for this but I have to ask: Are there specks in your counter that are really that blue? I am a geologist and it is kinda a full-time job :)
