Knitting:
I just finished a wonderful three week beginning lace class at Hillsborough Yarn shop, taught by Gali, a/k/a firetweed. I learned a lot and finished a lace scarf – photos to follow.
Thus inspired, or maybe crazed by the PHILLIES WINNING THE WORLD SERIES, I decided my next lace project after the beginners’ scarf would be . . . .
Yeah, THAT looks easy, eh? Last night I learned a new cast-on and started with the casting on and the first tiny row of nine stitches.
I have too many WIPs.
Travel: went to McClellanville, South Carolina and had a wonderful time.
Election – in great suspense these final days.
Back to work for now . . .
Many Happy Returns 
Go Phillies!
I love the shawl you picked out for your next project. It’s beautiful. Good Luck!
