One of the main reasons for my lack of posting last month was that I got a new job! I was offered a part-time job at our local library that was just too good to pass up. Training for a new job, though, added in to finishing up two college classes, plus caring for this little brood & trying to keep our home from coming down around our ears proved to be a tad more time consuming than I thought it would be, and I found I needed to let absolutely everything go that I possibly could. We survived, and things are coming back into order now, thank goodness.
Around the same time, I came across the Lanesplitter skirt pattern, and became obsessed. I rummaged in my stash, and found I had enough Noro Silk Garden in my stash to knit this up, and cast on! Now, the skirt is finished, and is waiting to be blocked and have the waistband put on. I think it will be perfect for wearing at the library - I'm so glad to have a job where I can wear things like this!
congrats on the new job! i can't wait to see what the skirt looks like all blocked and ready for work!
