School's Out for Summer
Today was the last day of school for my boys. They're so thrilled they can barely stand it. We've already started the summer routine. Since they're out of school, I did the only logical thing a mother could do: I signed up for knitting camp. OK. It's really just a series of lessons at my LYS. Today was the first class for the Kaffe Fassett Floral Jacket (#14 in the Spring/Summer issue of Vogue Knitting. The Sally Session group all signed up for this wonderful class. No newcomers this time. We had a great time taking our personal measurements, talking about the pattern and picking out yarns. We decided to use Zara. I can hardly wait to knit up my swatch. I hope you're equally as anxious to see a photo of my swatch.
I'm so thrilled with this summer gift to myself. It will really give me something to look forward to while the boys are busy with their own summer schedules. This Kaffe Fassett jacket is also challenging enough to keep me on my toes.
If you're in my area, maybe you'll want to join me for some classes. Here are the ones I signed up for at Knitting Central:
- Kaffe Fassett Floral Jacket
- Ravelry 102 (to learn all the things I didn't know I didn't know
- Introduction to Crochet
- My First Lace
Who knew I would be so excited about summer school?
Yay for school being out for the summer! I.m happy schools out for my boys. Very happy :)
Enjoy your classes!!
