But I'm absolutely in love with the little ruffled tank top I'm making for Temple. It's a knitty.com free pattern, Monica, I found online. Here is the link:

I'm nearly finished with the front, I only need to finish the straps. I'm making it out of Rowan's wool/cotton blend. I love this yarn: feels like a soft cotton but has more elasticity. And it's washable. these colors are pretty true to what you see in the photos. The body is a silver-heather dusty purple, and the ruffles and straps are an icy, dusty blue/gray. (Wait. Dusty Ice? Oh well.) I can just see it next to Temple's eyes and coloring.
It's such an easy knit...very travelable. Speaking of which, I leave for Cali tomorrow and although Jahan's packing is complete for their trip, I haven't even begun to pack for myself. What in the hell am I doing knitting?
OH! And the big news? Ike is coming on vacation with me to California, Vashon Island and Vancouver...for 25 days! His first time away from home for so long without Mama and Poppi. He'll be just fine. C'mon, it's his BUSHA....and he'll have all the rest of his family too. And then for the grand finale, cousin Satchel in Canada!
