It's still cold here to go outside, but when it's summer I love to knit outdoors. You get some sunlight, and get to relax.

Can you easily move your stuff to a comfy chair outside to appease the "you should be enjoying the weather" crowd?

These people mean garden work and mowing, when they say they want me outside. If I loom outside, they just roll their eyes, and sigh. Lol!!!

Haha, I know, my family was the same way. I just counter with: "but I AM outside, enjoying the sunshine, and being productive on my ____ project"

They usually grumble a little but can't argue with it, and leave me alone.

Good advice. Thanks!!!

Ahhh! I love Turqua! It gets it's name because the color is in between turquoise and aqua. : )

Nice save on the blanket dimensions. It's so frustrating when patterns don't add up.

Thanks for the explanation...lol!!!
Yeah. The measurements are weird on the blanket.

Well, if the two inches aren't added somehow in assembling the blanket then I'd say it was a good catch! After lunch I walked for half an hour in the sunshine. It is a very pretty day here today! I hope your physical therapy goes better tomorrow!

is there an eratta for the book?

There may be...

I hate people nagging to go outside. I go outside to go for a walk or work in the garden I don't live outside. I live inside with my computer and my books and my knitting. I do occasionally take them outside with me but I generally find outdoors-ness too distracting to get that sort of stuff done.

Have you checked to see if there's a list of pattern corrections online or on Rav? It's possible someone mistyped...either way I approve of the correction *g* I'm not sure blocking would've saved your butt in this case or not. I've never done anything in red heart which needed blocking.

oh ugh options. I dislike them. I'm too indecisive. Hopefully you have better luck picking than I would.

Usually they get their way. After so much of whining for me to go outside, I will inevitably give in.

windandthestars March 18 2011, 13:33:10 UTC

I usually play the 'I already went outside' game and if that doesn't work I'll go take a nap in the grass with the cats. Oddly the 'you need fresh air' argument never comes up in the winter.

theyarnproject March 18 2011, 17:11:27 UTC

Too true. In Winter, people want you to stay inside. Go figure. =)
