Progress Shots
I promised pictures - so here we go.
this is the progress - actually only started on this today - on the baby bonnet. It has a really sweet pattern stitch. But it is a bit complicated and I haven’t memorized it yet, so I left it at home tonight.
Hubby and I went with daughter and one of the granddaughters to hear grandson sing with his high school concert choir tonight - a 2 1/2 hour concert! They visited Spain and France over spring break - singing in cathedrals, the French/American cemetery, the Guggenheim (! NOBODY sings in the Guggenheim - nobody until Hendy’s group, that is) and in many other places. It was a trip of a lifetime and we were so pleased to have a small part in grandson getting to go.
Tonight they gave a performance of their music. And I was enthralled! They had fun and they sang so beautifully.
What, you might ask, has this to do with knitting?
Well, I took the felted bag I’ve been working on with me. It is just knitted in the round and that can be done anywhere - in the dark, eyes closed as I wept with the music - it’s portable. So - here is the progress made tonight.
I have my fingers poised where I began tonight once in the auditorium. Everything above was done while listening to the choir.
So - that’s it for today - I hope to get some more done on the bonnet before heading off to bed tonight.
