Another Sunny Saturday?

Well, not so much. It is rather cloudy and almost dreary here. Under our Saturday Sky, we found a tortoise pining for a sunbeam. Sorry, buddy, I think you are out of luck today.

Other than the odd weather, it is all lacrosse all the time here. Young Man had two games last Saturday afternoon, but I forgot the camera! He has another game tonight, but I won't be able to get decent pictures under the lights. He also has a call-back for the travelling team. This is the Crush team that he was on last summer. This time he is a big sixth grader and one of the more experienced players. If he makes the final cut, we should be visiting Park City, Utah, and northern California this summer.

Finally, we could use something cheery on this dreary day. I give you pink!

Project: Rotini Scarf (pattern from a local yarn shop

Yarn: Trendsetter Yarns Tonalita in 2420 (lots of pink)

Needles: US 8 (5.0 mm) straights

Notes: Well, it is bright! This isn't usually my thing, but I had a weak moment. All pink yarns were on sale for Valentine's Day and I was looking for a project to make for a mom who has helped us get to lacrosse practices. I rounded a corner and ran smack into a store sample of this pattern and the pattern was free. It is different and not at all my style or coloring, but I think the recipient will like it. I hope so!
