First, Bonita – I am completely falling in love with this shirt. The knitting is perfect, albeit on size 4 needles. Just enough lace and just enough stockinette to keep me interested, but not stress me out. Also, I’m loving knitting with the Garnstudio Safran. For cotton, this is a joy to knit with. I’m really looking forward to having this top finished – maybe in time for 4th of July? One can dream…
Next – check it out…. I’ve joined Mystery Stole 3.
This completely fascinates me. I remember watching other knitters during the last Mystery Stole, watching them create a stole, not knowing what the next chart in the pattern would be, or what the finished product would look like. Unfortunately, last time I didn’t find out about it in time to join. This time, I’m in! I hope I can keep up with everyone!
Lastly… guess where I’m going tomorrow night? – my 30-year high school reunion. To tell the truth, I’ve hardly even given this any thought since I plunked down the $$ a month or so ago. I almost find it odd that I’m not even a bit freaked about going. I haven’t been to once since the 5th year reunion, and, well, in 5 years not a whole lot had changed. But, things should be interesting tomorrow. I have a few friends I’ve kept in touch with, but other than them, I’m wondering if I’ll even recognize anyone? – or if they’ll recognize me.
Even odder – I’ve had two calls within the last month from people I haven’t heard from in 30 years, begging me to come, telling me “everyone” is hoping I’ll be there! Who are these “everyone??” Seriously, I flew pretty low under the radar during high school and I’m a bit surprised!
Well, I’m going, with bells on (not really, I’ll be wearing Eiffel), with no expectations, and an amused and curious countenance. I’ll let you know how it goes ;o)

I love the color you chose for your Bonita. Seems like everyone is doing them in white, so I’ll be interested to see yours completed.
I just joined the Mystery Shawl KAL too! I’ve never done anything like it and I didn’t notice it last year, so I’m very excited.
30 years? really? I wouldn’t have guessed it. You look great! The Eiffel will be perfect to wear. I hope you have fun.
I went to my 15 year reunion, and I hated every minute of it. I hope you enjoy yours.

I love Bonita! Such a great top and it will look amazing in the color you choose. I really look forward to seeing it completed.
I hope you have a great time at your reunion! I went to my 10 year and it was weird but fun to see everyone. It is amazing how some people change for the best and some are just stuck in the same rut.
Your Bonita is going to be lovely! Have fun at your reunion. I haven’t been since my 5th, but maybe I’ll go one of these days.
Bonita is a beautiful sweater!
I haven’t been to one high school reunion. This summer is our 15th, and I again am not attending. Just not interested. I hope you have fun at yours!
You did NOT fly so low under the radar, girl! And you don’t look much different from this yearbook picture…did you want me to put it on my blog?…(yahahaha…..)
I wouldn’t do that to ya. It should be interesting. At the 20 year, things were REALLY different. Truly. REALLY!
I can’t wait to see how old the rest of them look, since we are so well preserved!
Have a great time at the reunion! My mother went to her 50th and said she recognised everyone, they all looked so old, bald and fat to her though. I have never been to one of mine.
that top looks like a winner! Have a great time at your reunion
