I spent this week wrapping up loose ends at home and work, and finishing up some small knitting projects too. Among them, this scarf in Jade Sapphire Mongolian Cashmere, Color #40, 3 skeins, size 9 needles. The pattern was the February 1 entry in the 2007 Knitting Calendar, written by Sandra Bennett from Thistle Cove Farm. It was a simple stitch that feels so scrumptious in cashmere. I'll be storing this one away until next fall.
We're off on a Spring Break family vacation. We will be joining my husband's cousin and his family at a very special spot in sunny Jamaica! Both families have the same age and gender children, so hopefully the moms and dads can kick back while the kids entertain themselves!
You will LOVE that next winter. Have a wonderful week!

Have a great time! I'm sure that once you get there you will have an incredible vacation. I'll be thinking of you when I'm cooking and doing laundry and schlepping the kids around. :)
