“Old farts with matching recliners-style.”
The hubby’s old recliner was WAY past stylin’, and falling apart, so a couple of weeks ago he replaced it, with TWO! His and hers, rocker/recliners. They kids may tease us about looking like oldsters, but we seem to be having to kick the same kids out of our chairs all the time 
)
I get the one by the window – good knitting light, and a window sill for my important stuff – knitting tools, a place for my Diet Coke, and my girafe, Melman, to hold my reading/knitting glasses.
Hmmm, recliner, knitting glasses, and I do seem to be falling asleep a lot in front of the TV at night… Eh – so what, I get a bit of knitting done there, too, and it makes a nice lap for the dog…. and I’ve got the DVR so I can go back later and watch whatever TV show I nodded off to. I’m likin’ it!
And, this is what I’m working on lately while I recline:
Everyone’s favorite “Chevron Scarf” from Last Minute Knitted Gifts. Lily has claimed this one for herself. (It’s got pink in it!). I’m using some leftover sock yarn, I think Lorna’s Laces Black Purl and Somerset. It’s the perfect, just interesting enough, just mindless enough pattern for TV and car knitting.
Well, off to finish work, then I think I’ll recline. We had a big weekend, a couple of nice celebrations – Lily’s boyfriend’s Eagle Scout Court of Honor, and the bud’s birthday/graduation party. Thanks for the well wishes for his interview and birthday. He’s got grown up decisions to make in the future…. he’s also finishing up his EMT classes and is seriously considering going on to paramedic and continuing his Search and Rescue work, and holding off on the police thing for a couple of years….
Do you remember back when you were that young, and the world was full of possibilities? – it’s fun to watch. One of the perks of raising kids )

Mine is looking forward to Medical School, or Forensics. At least she has the study skills to work toward that goal.
I have a knitting couch next to my Sitting Room window. I have likely worn the cushion to the bare threads!
Got to love Melman the girafe!!! Lovely knitting too!
i would love my own reclining chair, and i’m only 30!
(p.s. love the chevron scarf! it’s about time i put that in my queue)
That sounds like my life, and I’m not even 30 yet! Love the chevron. I used leftovers, too, and it was plenty long enough. Plus, something from nothing!
Looks like a great spot to seddle down with your knitting. And I see you got hooked on the chevron scarf. I think that one should be in everybodies FO bag.
Such a cosy corner. I could sit there the whole day & knit. Love the colors of the chevron scarf & I also knitted one of them – great pattern.
I have the pattern and needles and yarn in a project bag just need to finish knitting Christmas presents first.I love yyour chevron scarf:)hugs Darcy
Ciao- I have been out of the loop forever, good to see all your FO’s! The scarf looks awesome…I’ll have to make one too, one day.
Seriously, Lynda. JR would worship me if I let him get us matching recliners. And you must know how I feel about idol worship!
I’m afraid we’d never leave the tv room.
