AL"s Finish. For Chilly Morns in Oklahoma
Al was finishing this shawl when she visited me last month.
This is the FIRESIDE Shawl by Leah Thibault.
In the book : Weekend Wraps
18 quick knit cowls, scarves and shawls
She did not use worsted. I am 99.9% sure she used sock yarns from a coordinating kit.
If I'm wrong Al, please correct me in the comments.
There are beautiful 8 row repeats of diamonds involved, that don't show well in these photos.
( I survived the First Cub Post Season game last night.
Between innings I was checking on you all in the hurricane zone. In the real world.
I'm exhausted. My father, and he and I are not on good terms, took me to every Cub opener each April.
I missed talking to him about the game last night, but lets not go there....
I don't quite know where ALL this emotion re: the Cubs comes from. I couldn't watch Buster Posey come to the plate in the 9th ..I love Buster Posey and he's not even a Cub.
I couldnt breathe until Fireman said the last out was made.
This is a GAME. But,
I've waited my whole life for this.)

Memories attach themselves to events, activities, smells, sounds, and even tastes. Sometimes it's hard to work experience the here and now without all the previous emotions surfacing. Hugs
Love the shawl on Al. I'm still sleeveless here and in flip flops. The AC is on because we have 90% humidity. This is the never ending summer but at least now it's bearable.
Hugs,

Parents and emotions. I totally get it. Hang in there.
