Mayo, Mustard, let’s Ketchup!

Hey y’all!  I think we have this new blog under control.  At least it is here and one of us is blogging!  YEAH!  So, what all has happened since the last we spoke?  I have a couple finished projects, that unfortunately, you will have to see later because I don’t have pictures of those.  But, I do have a few pics of Italy!  We had a great time.  I was pretty disappointed in the yarn stores, but honestly… I didn’t go to Italy to buy YARN!  HAHAHA!  I bought a bag of yarn, something I may never use, but hey, it wasa great souvenier.  It is a berry colored ribbon yarn. 

How about some pictures?

This is me and the hubby in Florence at the Ponte Vecchio.   Yes, I am wearing the Tuscany shawl!

This is me doing some of my favorite things… knitting and drinking wine!  We packed a picnic lunch and trekked out to the Pitti Palace Gardens.  We loved our day in the gardens, we had such a nice relaxing time.

   

Look!  It’s a leaning tower!  (Pisa of course)  A little wine and Tuscany at the Roman Colluseum. 

Remember the Sea Silk that I was going to make another Tuscany out of? 

Here is the NEW Tuscany traveling from Florence to Rome.  I still have a bit to go, but it’s coming along nicely.  I love the way the Sea Silk looks and feels in this pattern. 

I have finished one of the two pairs of socks I am making for my SIL’s.  I finished it on the way home from Italy.  I have almost finished the first sock on the second pair. 

I hope to have another post coming soon, with more pics of some finished projects, but until then, thanks so much for stoping by!
