Whiffs of Spring

(Gerstein library: somewhere in the QD 400s)

A knitting-less post today, because the Brennan cardi is still on the button-band stage and looking much like the last progress pic did, but it's getting there bit by bit. If the weather keeps up like it is I won't get much wear out of it until next year... but who am I kidding, I'm having a hard time complaining. Yesterday there was sun and blue sky and daytime highs of 20 Celsius, and I happily said goodbye to the winter comforter and said hello to capri pants and sandals. Poor sweaters, we hardly knew ye.

I'm jonesing something fierce for some hemp, or hemp blends, though. Maybe when my stash fingers are feeling less itchy and Mr. Visa card is ready to put out again.

The current WIP is still the thesis. Sadly the progress pics of it aren't as pretty:


I think I'll need to head to campus at some point today, but it's much nicer to go in the sunshine, I tell ya what.

Sending happy thesis-writing vibes your way. Are you tired of people asking whether it's done yet?! Those of us who cycle to school every day are certainly enjoying the warmer weather - it beats riding in snow last week! Have a great week.
