The rain didn't touch us...

Although we could feel a breeze and a bit of a drizzle when the wind blew in the right direction. It was a welcome relief from the heat today. We spent the first half hour catching up with Dorah who just returned from a hiking tour of the Canadian Rockies around Banff. It sounded like a magical vacation with beautiful scenery everywhere she looked.

Barbara K. added quite a few inches to her Mistake Rib Hat and she gave me a completed Beloved Hat which you'll see a bit later.

Dorah added length to her Close to You Shawl. This will be quite large since she had a sizable skein of yarn from which she is knitting.

She brought her Bella Shawl to show us her progress. The little bit of lace at every sawtooth edge is a nice touch!

Barbara B. is well into the darker blue of her baby blanket. It makes a nice transition from one color to the next.

Carole was bored with her project and felt inspired to make two at a time mittens from the TinCanKnits pattern for easy mittens.

I thought my Easy Shawl would have been finished by now but I forgot how slow-going it is. Each row gets longer than the last and I still have over a dozen stitches to pick up in short rows to complete it.

Jan A. worked a cable pattern without a cable needle to make this hat.

It's called the Sweetie Pie Hat and it's free on Ravelry.

Maureen's cowl looks so warm and cozy. The yarn makes for a quick knit, if you have the time, "If you have the time" being the operative words. ;)

Jan A. turned in the Easy Scarf for inventory. Her choice of yarn was perfect for this pattern.

And here is Barbara K.'s Beloved Hat I mentioned earlier. The crown decreases lined up beautifully to make a four point top.

The seed stitch was a challenge to some of us when it came to the decreasing portion but Barbara knitted it beautifully.

 I am determined to finish my Easy Scarf so I'll end here and wish you a great week and remind you to Keep those needles clicking!
