Back to knitting...and blogging

I'm back! I've finally had the chance to get back to my knitting after all the last few months of house craziness! And I've been finishing up a bunch of things.

First, I have to show off our new house! We just love it. We moved to the quaint Seattle neighborhood of Ballard and we couldn't be happier. We're so excited to finally be in a house we will call home for many years to come! Lot's of work still to do though before it will really feel like our home. I still pull up in front every night and think "wow, this is my house!" The best part it being able to walk down the hill to the beach! Very cool.

On the knitting front, my first finished object in ages is the Backyard Leaves scarf from Scarf Style. This was knitted for my Stick Ya Neck Out swap partner Nichola. I absolutely love it and hate to give it away! Even Peter said, "You have to give that away?! But it's so beautiful!" It was a lot of fun to knit and participate in the swap. Maybe someday I'll make one of my own! So sadly, I sent it on it's way to Melbourne yesterday and my swap obligation is complete...just a little late!

Tomorrow - my SYNO scarf knitted by Kate...
