The forever pants are finally finished! I am soooooo happy! I found an error in the pattern, and had to do some corrections, but it was worth it. Glad that I stuck with it, and hope the kids like them. Posting photo:


It warmed up nicely today, and by Saturday it may reach 70 degrees. Looking forward to the weekend!

I treated myself to a couple of skeins of Sugar 'n Creme, and I'll whip up a couple of dishcloths.

Here's a photo of the second doll blanket I made for my friend's granddaughter. It's not quite finished in this photo:

I used my hexagon afghan pattern, and the same colors as the round ripple I just finished. I'm thinking for the third doll blanket, I will be looking for a mile-a-minute pattern.

So it was an adventure for both of us. We stayed at the Fernwood Hotel and Resort. I'd read excellent reviews and also some very bad reviews on the place. I was hesitant to book it, but it was the most reasonably priced lodging with availability on such short notice. There were restaurants on the grounds and lots to do in the resort and the surrounding area.
