The actual birthday night went well - I had to work all day Saturday at an on-campus event so I was pretty dang tired but pushed through it. Let's just be glad I didn't have the camera out after 10pm.
This weekend is the actual "party", which involves wine tasting, good food, and Santa Cruz. 3 of my favorite things. I'm super duper excitied. It's been over 8 months since I've been there - the longest period of time in almost 5 years!
Other than that, I'm not quite sure where all my money and the month of March have gone! I must be distracted, because this just occured to me last night:
Please excuse the camera phone that makes this the color of the stuff that Viva threw up two nights ago.
It's the Dollar and a Half Cardigan, and although the directions AND the photo clearly illustrate that the panels between the lace should be reverse st st, I failed to note this. However, I like it. A lot. This is one knitting mistake I'm actually glad I made.
PS - For a Friend to Knit With / Regarding the Green Sweater - it's the A-Line Coat from the Debbie Bliss Cathay booklet. I am SO damn close to finishing this... and it will definitely be a monkey off my back!

Sounds like a fabulous weekend ahead! Have fun. :)
Have a wonderful weekend! I LOVE Santa Cruz and have not been there in YEARS! Thanks for the note about the debbie bliss a-line coat.....it looks like it could be right up my alley! :)
its so funny that you made that mistake (I mean, "design element")- I just commented on another blog how the reverse stockinette looks inside out to me, and if I ever made this, I would try to just do those parts in stockinette. Looks wonderful!
Have a great weekend!
