Yes I am...truely overwhelmed by all of the positive responses I have recieved regarding Butterfly. I would like to thank all of you and let you know how much I appreciate all of your fabulous comments. You have made me feel extremely special...and who doesn’t love to feel special! As I have said in my last post, I love how Butterfly turned out and I have already worn her about 4 times. Every year we have a Christmas party and I have already decided to knit another Butterfly for the party. I’m either going to use the KSH in Liquer (Burgundy) or in Wicked (Black), except this time I am going to use beads...I think just on the front though. Gaile made a comment..."How on earth are you going to top this?” I am really not sure I have an answer to this one. I guess I would have to say that I would want all my knitted projects to fit me well...well enough for me to enjoy wearing them. That is all I could hope & pray for. If I think of anything else Gaile, I’ll let you know.
Olive update…
I have not been knitting much, but I have been working on Olive. I am finished with all of the knitting except for picking up the stitches for the collar. I also still have to seam her & get the zipper put in. I am not starting anything elso until I finish her.
My DH and I went to the Cambridge Hyatt for a fabulous 5 days. We played golf 3 days in a row. Can you believe it was 98 degress with 100% humidity...but we did survive, thanks to the nice fellow who brought wet cold wash clothes by to us on the golf course. How refreshing that was! I played great. I broke 100 2 times. It was an easier course than the ones we usually play...but I still played great! We ate fabulous food, probably drank a little more than usual (it was a vacation you know) We went to the pool one day after golf. I haven’t done that in years (I try to protect myself from the sun). It was so relaxing though. It has been awhile since Rick & I have been away alone together and it was very nice. We actually enjoy each others company...alot!!! Here are a few photos from the golf course…
This was a par 3 that I pared. I got the ball in the hole in 3 shots!

Beautiful flowers...what flowers are not?
Here is a photo of Heather and I. She came over for dinner at our house. We grilled out & it was fabulous…
Go check out her finished Everyday Cardi. It looks awesome!!! Great job H!
I met Donna in Tysons Corner, Va for a fun filled 2 days. We shopped at the mall the first day. Then for dinner we went to Maggiano’s. This is my favorite Italian restaurant. The best!!!
Getting ready to go out for the evening...to Maggiano’s. She even brought with her a bottle of a fabulous Cab. Yum!!! We had a cocktail before dinner.
The next day we hit some knit shops & had a fabulous lunch.
Getting ready for the day. See I’m wearing Butterfly...again! I can’t get enough of this beautiful top.
We had the waiter take a photo of us after we stuffed our faces.
Thanks Donna...I had a fabulous time!! Can’t wait to do it again!
I gotta run to Pilate’s, so if I forgot anything, I will post it next time. I promise it won’t be as long in between posts!
Have a fantabulous day!
