Neither of us had ever been to northern WI before and were surprised by the trees. I thought only northern MN was so populated by trees! Anyway, where DS & DDIL live, we threaded our way around so many corners we didn't have a clue which direction we were headed. They seem to be accustomed to it though and zipped around showing us the area. This is a picture of the driveway leading to their home. One lane, lined by trees and more curves than a circle. It's pretty though, isn't it?
I did just a touch of knitting on my mitten liner. I have to do the kitchener stitch and knit the thumb on the 1st one and then start the other. What I really want to do is start a pair of socks with Kroy yarn. It is supposed to make itself into a jacquard pattern and I'm anxious to see if it will. I bought 2 skeins of it on sale for under $5 total. That is if my memory isn't failing me! I bought it awhile ago when Michael's Crafts was selling out of it.
And that reminds me. While in Michael's recently I overheard someone asking about a certain brand of yarn and the saleslady said that they have been have yarn sales lately to reduce their inventory since they are getting new brands in and that they wouldn't be getting more of the type the customer was asking for. I wish I was brave enough to ask what the new brands were going to be....Time will tell. Just another reason to stop in occasionally to look over what they have. :)
