    Well done to her! It can be so difficult to pull yourself out of a soul-destroying situation. I hope she finds happiness.

    Very busy at my workplace, enjoyed the sunshine by going for a walk around my local area on my way home. Watching the tennis now.

    I was up til 5am this morning finishing off a blanket I knitted to enter into our state fair. It is HUGE!!!!
    We`ve had so many bad winters the past few years I wanted to knit a blanket with thick yarn that holds the heat in from the electric blanket on me and hubbys bed. The border edging alone took 3 balls of yarn!! Fifteen balls total of yarn.
    It was so heavy knitting it that Popeye would be envious of my arm muscles now.
    *Flexes arms for emphasis*

    My mind is boggling at the size of the task
    and admiration for your stamina in completing it!!

    Did you knit it in squares first??

    I hope you do well at State Fair TL- you deserve
    to.

    Im also quite ashamed that I was so "nesh"
    as to complain last winter was so cold here!!
