What day is it? It's been a week around chez Kiki & Cee...let's just say the times, they are a changing...and not because of anything either Cee or I did or even wanted...ever feel like you are damned if you do and damned if you don't? Then you know exactly how we feel. Can't go into much detail, but let's just say that we shall be hosting a lodger for an undetermined amount of time and leave it at that....the things you do for family...or more accurately in-law family....that you don't even know....bleh, enough...I'm getting a headache just thinking about it...
Work has been progressing on the blanket for my niece's housewarming present. It's pretty boring to look at, but I haven't as yet gone completely crazy with all the garter stitch:

This is the Moderne Log Cabin Blanket, from Mason Dixon Knitting...perfect for sitting in front of the tv while pondering silently about how life as you know it is now over...am I being too melodramatic??
I also started a cardigan....can't call it a Cowichan, mostly because it's not...but it's that style...I wanted something thick and warm for fall days spent hiking trails and raking leaves and generally being outdoorsy...snort, like I do any of that! Seriously, it just caught my eye and I thought I'd make it...for whomever it fits, just to see if I could...yes, I'm the process-type of knitter:
It's from a Bernat pattern booklet....it may end up being cannibalized for other things...who knows.
Until next time, dearies...keep well. I'll leave you with Queen Collie, who captures my thoughts exactly, 'cause she keeps it real like that:

Blanket is looking good... hope your "issue" isn't as bad as you think it's going to be
I love the Moderne blanket! Perfect for relaxing, tv knitting. I have one stashed away that I really should pull out and finish. :)
It can be a big and difficult adjustment to open your home to someone you don't know well. I hope the houseguest situation won't be too stressful or uncomfortable.
