  The Amazing Beautiful Butterfly

Butterfly is oh so delicate...oh so beautiful...oh so I can’t believe I even knit this beautiful knitted piece of clothing!!! I am in love...all over again. Did I mention that I’m in love?

Isn’t she pretty? I had a few problems with the pattern. Once I figured it out...with the help of my Butterfly knitalong friends, it all worked out. This is a pretty quick knit. The pattern repeat is only 6 sts & I don’t have to look at the pattern anymore for the basic stitch pattern.
BUTTERFLY UPDATE
You all think I am more quick than I really am. This is only the back of Butterfly. I am working on the front now. Still though...she is a quick knit. When I am all finished, I will model her with a camisole underneath. We wouldn’t want anyone getting any bad impressions now… would we!! wink

I just got back from Pilates...so forgive the workout clothes. Birch would look much better with a fabulous outfit!

The heart of an Orchid...at least that is what I call it…

A White Orchid close up. I’m trying to get the whole middle of the orchid very clear. I think I need to get farther back, take the photo & then crop it. I’ll try that next time.

Workout Update
Think I haven’t been working out because I haven’t posted about it...I think not! I’m still taking my 2 private Pilates lessons each week. When Rick & I play golf, we have been walking the course using a push cart. Each time gets a little easier. We walked both Saturday & Sunday last weekend. It was a sunny gorgeous weekend. So we probably walked about 5 miles each day while playing golf. Boy oh boy were we tired when we were done. I am improving so much in golf. Getting better makes me want to play more. I could easily play 4 times a week! I’m an obsessed golfer...really I am! I decided, I am at my happiest...knitting & golfing! I’m also working out my weight & doing cario at least 2 times a week. There is one thing I love about the warmer weather...I am much more active. I can’t wait to move where it is nice all year round.

Have a fabulous evening & more!
