Houston, we have larvae…

06 Feb Larvae Scarf DONE 00106 Feb Larvae Scarf DONE 002 Yes, the interminable multi-directional “larvae” scarf is finally finished.  Woot!  In the detail shot on the right, you can see why it earned the name “larvae”.  I do like the springtime color.

YARN:  hand-me-down Pingouin Hesperides cotton & viscose from Sherri

NEEDLES:  US size 7’s

PATTERN:  any one of the multi-directional scarf patterns out there

‘Twas fun, but it took forever b/c it’s such thin yarn and b/c I didn’t work on it often.  It was my mindless take-along project forever (in WW meetings, in waiting rooms, etc.).  Now, I need  a new one!

Button Day / SuperKid Day

06 Feb Button Day06 Feb SuperKid! Today was the annual “Button Day” at school and the monthly “SuperKids” day.  As you can see, though it was 55 degrees out this morning, Thing One insisted on dressing for the frozen tundra.  Can you see all her buttons on the lanyard?  The best ones, of course, were the one of Paul and the one from Uncle Rick’s 40th birthday party.  Turns out, Thing One was the girl SuperKid from her class this month.  Yippee!  It was really cool b/c last night, totally unprompted by us, she prayed that even if she wasn’t chosen, she’d be happy and proud for the kid who was.  What a great attitude!
