here is my nolan scarf knit from the "cashmere for him" kit by jade sapphire. it was a delight to knit, and i seriously could become addicted to knitting with cashmere. i seem to be on some kind of knitting frenzy however, because the monkey socks i began last week are almost finished. i have two 11 row repeats to finish and then i begin toe decreases!
i met angie this saturday at the yarn shop again, and picked up two skeins of malabrigo worsted in "forest". i am going to use these to knit another alligator scarf, this time for one of my nephews. my nephew totally deserves malabrigo, because at the age of three he asked for hand knit socks for christmas...... truly a knitting aunties dream come true.
i decided to make a new years resolution for better health this year (like millions of other americans) and so have dug my gym membership card out of hibernation. this morning matthew and i attended an aerobics class called "boot camp". it kicked my bootie for sure. toward the end of the class i felt like i was pretty much just flailing around more than following the routine. however, i feel fabulous. after only a few days of eating more sensibly and exercising i feel a return of energy. this is a good contrast to the tiredness and constant grogginess i was feeling during the holidays. gee imagine that, if i eat well and exercise i feel better, novel idea huh?
