Spring seems to be here

Flowers from Emma's bouquet from drama

Good morning, everyone!  It is a beautiful day here in the Atlanta area and it is very springy outside.  Hopefully it will stay! 

Here's what's been going on...

Emma just finished working on a play with her drama group.  She was the assistant stage manager for Cast B and she learned so much!  It was a lot of hard work but she loved it.  One of my favorite parts of her work was that she blocked a scene where the main characters were being chased by bad guys.  Her vision was for it to look Scooby Doo-ish with the characters running back and forth, in and out.  Her idea worked and it was a very funny scene.  Although I don't know if the actors liked all the running around.  :)  I'm so proud of her!

I've been knitting but don't have much to show right now.  One of the ladies in the Ravelry Prayer Shawl group is working on a pattern and I offered to test knit it for her.  It's been a great project to have with me while waiting for drama practice to be over.  I'll show you a photo when I bind off, which should hopefully be this week.  I'm also knitting red fishnet mitts for Emma's role in the next play.

There is a new yarn store in town!  It's called Lovin Knit Yarn Shop and Studio.  They don't have all their yarns in yet but there was plenty to see while I was there.  They had Ella Rae Lace Merino (Rav link), which I hadn't seen before.  Have any of you knitted with that before?  The owner of the store was very friendly and the shop was inviting with stuffed chairs, a table and chairs, lots of windows, etc.  There was even a cute dog named Baby.  It's nice to have another store so close to me.

Well, I guess I should get my day started.  I hope you all have a great Monday!

I'm glad Emma's scene was such a success! I've used Ella Rae classic but not the laceweight. Did you get some? I'm curious to find out what you think of it.

The new LYS sounds wonderful...I love mine but it doesn't have a comfy seating area.

Sounds like your week was off to a great start! We are having warm, spring-like weather here as well.
Kudos to Emma for her success!!
