Cast on

A bit blurry, but you get the idea. More knits happening here. Tonight I cast on for the "Kicking Bag for Babies." It's going quickly. Getting back in the knitting groove!

Wee knits

Still needs to be blocked. But, sweater number one is off the needles! (Sorry for the dim picture, it was late).

What tomorrow holds...

Lots and lots of papers to grade.

Pilgrim Winnie

So, Miss Winns was "fixed" earlier this week along with both her brothers. Unfortunately for her, she had more stitches and needed to be fitted with the ever stylish collar to keep her from them. She was pretty dismayed at the whole idea until she realized how to flip it down for a more stylish (and certainly pilgrim-esque) look. And she's been quite happy to sashay around the house showing it off ever since. Pretty girl. She'll be ready for Thanksgiving as well!

Hamlet!

Yesterday I was fortunate to head up to "The City" to attend the broadway production of Hamlet with Jude Law. Not only was this interpretation of the play riveting and exciting, but Jude Law was incredible. And we were in the third row!!! Third row. I was able to attend with a wonderful group of faculty (initially I thought I was signing up to chaperone students, so this was a welcome surprise when I showed up to board the van). We went to a lovely dinner afterwards and were able to really discuss the play together-- so nice! Not a bad treat.

Blissful Saturday

It started with the first frost. Then an advisee breakfast trip followed. Then a lovely day of registering for baby things, reading, tea, baking bread.

(Pardon the dog goo on the windows there. There was no house cleaning today).

And knitting from this book all afternoon:Which I love, love, love!! I'm getting the groove back! Just needed a good pattern, and the peace of mind that being 26 weeks along brings.
