Errand Day

I've got some errands to run today, so this is going to be a quick update.

The Rambling Shadows Jacket is still on the first sleeve, but I'm right at the cuff. I wanted to get that sleeve done yesterday, but I hit an issue with my beginner knitter pillow pattern for the class I'm teaching this fall.

I designed the pillow to be 10" X 10", thinking that was a nice comfortable number of stitches. However, I realized that 10" square pillow forms are a wee bit hard to find... so I decided to make the pillow 12" X 12". Easy to change the pattern, but makes my finished sample obsolete. So a new one was started yesterday. Won't take me long (but let me say I'm getting very tired of garter stitch! with one more sleeve to go, a pillow back, and the buttonband on the Rambling Shadows... I'm getting full up on garter stitch, which isn't my favorite in the first place!!!).

So a pillow form is on my "to do list" today, along with some other errands. Tomorrow is going to be busy as well, as everyone has a dentist appointment... except Gena. Jake is getting his teeth cleaned and Matt and I have our cleanings scheduled as well. This is going to be a little problematic, as Gena will be very stressed to be home alone without Jake.

Okay, I'm off to try to finish up this sleeve before I get dressed to go out!
