We had a great Memorial Day weekend - we went over to our home on Lake Chelan - and all my kiddies were home:) It turned out to be a beautiful weekend. I did get a lot of knitting done - worked on my Spring Forward Cardigan, made 8 dish cloths, and worked on a pair of socks. I started the swatch for my Hanne - mermaid, but that's as far as I've gotten. I'm feeling a bit intimidated, and I honestly don't know why. I usually just pick a project and knit, and don't really think about it. I'm just so nervous that I'm not going to have enough yarn. My youngest, Kelly, has her dance recitals this weekend (6 shows - 3 on Sat, and 3 on Sun), and I plan on bringing it with me. I so want to get moving on it. I always volunteer, and will have plenty of time to knit between shows. Oh, forgot to mention, I picked out some green yarn and made my son a hat - so my Project Spectrum is finished. As soon as I take pictures I will post it. It came out nice.

My 4 babies, Shannon, Kristen, Patrick and Kelly - and, of course, little (or should I say, not so little) Koda-Bear. 

My beautiful niece, Shawna, who is so missed and so loved 

In loving memory of my beautiful niece, Shawna - who would have celebrated her 21st birthday on May 21st. Shawna, I have missed you every day of the past 4 years. You are always in my heart and in my thoughts. I love you, baby, you're my little angel.

Here's a close up. I just love the color... 

Well, I finally got my saddles done right - for the Spring Forward Cardigan - yeah:) I have started the back - and just loving it. It was a bit frustrating at first as I had to keep frogging the saddles - but real happy with them now. 

The Project Spectrum color for the month of May is green. I just finished a dishcloth with shades of green - and I will use that unless I can come up with something more creative. I love the color green, but for some reason I don't have any green yarn. Maybe I'll get some yarn and make my son a cap or a scarf. He's a huge NY Jets fan, and, of course, the Jets colors are green and white. Give me a few days to think on it:)
