Labor Day Weekend

This past weekend Nathan & I went down to Trinidad to visit some of his relatives. We had some rain on the way down, and when we arrived we saw this:

Trinidad Rainbow

We saw a rainbow the next day too, but this time you could see the whole thing (and me without my camera). It was nice spending time with his family; we just hung out and enjoyed each others company.

Since I drove part of the way there and back, I didn’t get too much knitting time in. But I did get some more done on my Chevron scarf that I started last week.

Chevron Scarf

I’m using Red Rocks Fiber Works yarn in 2 colors: Artichoke and One Wild Night. This picture shows the color better:

Last night I met some ladies at Lollicup and I knit some more on my Tomato. I only have 4 rows of the colorwork left! I can’t wait to see how it looks when I finish using the darker color. I hope it looks ok :)

Thank you for all your nice comments on my felted leaves and all the other projects I’ve attempted. I really appreciate it :D

    Your chevron is lovely. Bright and vibrant colors are always lovely in the bleak winter. What is the main difference between the chevron and a feathers and fan?

    Your chevron scarf is looking great!! Nice color combo and how cool it’s out of Red Rocks yarn!! I still have mine OTN and not much done on it, but I sure want to wear it someday, so I guess I should knit on it!!
