Wouldn't you know it...

Wouldn't you know that as soon as I started something new, my computer would die. Long story short, three power supplies later, my new Dell workstation is in and I'm reloading and configuring all my software instead of having fun. Hopefully I'll be back to normal in a week or so. The only good thing is that it's kept me inside while battling the Gulf coast allergy season which is in full swing. The tree pollen count yesterday was over 5000!!!

I am making a little time for knitting though. My goal right now is to finish the Forest Path Stole from Summer 2003 Interweave Knits. I'm on row 14. I know that doesn't sound like much, but this is a lace entrelac pattern so there are only 24 rows in all. I'm using some wonderful American Cashmere that I bought at Stitches West. Roddie drug me through the market when I was battling food poisoning and I came back with all kinds of nice stuff that I don't remember buying. I think I must have been trying to make myself feel better.
