Car Knitting

Yes, my son is a teen now...taller than me!  BUT...he is not quite old enough for a driver's license.  So, I try to keep my car knitting handy. I do not always knit while waiting. Sometimes I just rest, and that is ok! Maybe I will watch a You Tube video or color in one of my fancy coloring books, or journal. It depends on my mood and how long he will be.

Right now I am working on this beautiful cowl of deep cranberries mixed with teals and greens. It is so soft and squishy! There are only 12 more rows to go. The weather forecast is gray and drizzle, so maybe I will get to finish it this week if I bring it inside. Then I will have to put a different knitting project in the car. 

This cowl matches the fuzzy maroon jacket that I am wearing. I am also wearing a beautiful scarf from my sister-in-law, who is a very skilled knitter. When the natural lighting is better, this precious knitted gift deserves a few photos! I wore it often through chemo and it is still a firm favorite. It is May, but feels more like March here. I have not moved my cozy items from the front of the line yet!

I love the colors in your cowl. It will look great with your jacket. I hope the weather warms up for you soon.

Hi Evelyn, your cowl is gorgeous, hope to see you in it at some point. I chanced upon your blog today and was so surprised to see you back on blogger. I used to read your blog all the time. I also read your April post, which was astonishing, stark, heart rending, enlightening, and touching. Welcome back.

I was surprised when I checked on your blog and saw your posts. I am sorry to hear that you have had such a hard time with your health the past two years and hope that from now on you only improve. Can't believe that your son is almost old enough to drive. How fast time seems to pass. Take care of yourself first so that you can then take care of him. Please post an update when you can.
