Not a lot.. but I am knitting. Two out of three charity items are complete:
I still have the mittens yet to finish.
Lady Eleanor is still growing.... yet another photo:
I was studying this piece last evening and I just love the look of the un-blocked fabric.  It's very 3 dimensional.   I remember reading a post in the Scarf-Style Knit A -Long blog where a girl did this pattern and decided not to block it.   I thought that was the dumbest thing ever.  But the more I look at it, the more I understand not wanting to squash what makes it so interesting to the eye.   The last one I made was a solid color and it didn't seem to make that much difference.  I guess in the end, I may block it very lightly.   This pattern is like Clapotis.  You just keep wanting to make more.
For those of you who like to cook, I found an amazing lasagna recipe.   It's labor intensive, but worth every minute.  Enjoy.
