It's been a while since I posted. I have not been knitting too much. I may have burned out a little with the Olympic knitting, plus Sarah was home on spring break so I spent some time with her. She and I went over to Mississippi for a few days to visit my Mom and sister. We brought back some things from my mother's house that were being stored at my sister's. (My mother's house was destroyed in Hurricane Katrina.) I brought back a huge garbage bag of knitted dresses that my mother made probably back in the late 1960's or early 1970's. Most are acrylic yarn, but the amazing thing about them is that my mother did not use a pattern. She just got an idea in her head and started knitting. When she was done, she had great looking dresses or suits or coats. I don't think I will ever be that proficient at knitting. The other fun fact about my mother is this: She is almost 91, and she is still knitting. It's great. I hope I do as well.

I have been working on another pair of socks. This pair is the black pearl colorway from Lorna's Laces. I just passed the heel on the first sock.

I have been trying to decide what to do for my next big project, but have not come up with a plan that excites me. I will keep looking. I have to have more than just socks going, right?
