Cute Project Idea A dear dear friend's birthday is coming up, and I decided I would write him a thoughtful card explaining how important he is in my life. I am always disappointed in the store-bought cards, so, taking inspiration from another knitting blogger (sorry- I don't remember which one!), I knit a small square with a heart motif, and then outlined the heart and the border in contrasting yarn. It looks so nice- I bought a blank card (that you would use to print your own card on the computer) and tacked the square to the card front. I think he'll really like it- I will take a picture tonight and post it tomorrow. :)
I am making very slow progress on the baby blanket- I have so many things going on this week that it's hard to get any knitting in! Last night at rehearsal I think I managed a dozen stitches- maybe a few more- but not even close to a whole row. Oh well! I think the next couple of rehearsals will have more knitting time as we are working more and more with the orchestra.... gotta love the solo movements! For anyone in the DC area, our free concert is this sunday- email me for details!
The Latin phrase for today:
pecunia mutua
"a loan"
