I spent part of the weekend hanging out with the girls. It's always nice to go out, have a lot of good eats and just chat about life and crafting. We started again at our favorite bakery in the city where we enjoyed a delicious spread of treats. We can't ever get enough of that bread pudding! But I think each time I go, I have to try something new. This time, I tried the chard quiche. Soooo yummy! And the crossaint, the best I've ever had. I think the rumor may actually be true, the one that says each crossaint is made with 1/2 stick of butter (How can something so evil, not taste so good?)! We also had another siting of the Interweave girl! She must live nearby or knew that we were coming.

We then mosied over to a cafe to get some "work" done. There were also pictures to be taken..

And brainstorming to do. We talked about the projects that plague our lives and the solutions to rid us of these darned plagues. For Steph, it's been her Argyle Vest. For me, it's been the Ram's Horn Jacket.

I practically have an FO in my hands, people! The sweater is all done, knitted and seamed since before Christmas. The collar has also been knit and blocked since before Christmas. Even after all my Christmas projects have been completed, I still haven't touched the darn thing. There's a certain apprehension I have with this project that has prevented me from finishing it, part of which is the lack of instruction on attaching the collar (thanks goes to the girls for helping me finally decide on a course of action). The other part I can't pinpoint. But what I will tell you is this. This sweater will be finished by the end of the month!
There. I said it. Now you have to hold me to it.
