Morning after the holiday

Almost all goals met!  I had just one row of finishing to do on Casey's blanket and I did that yesterday.  Brooke and Ali came and got me for lunch, so I did get to "play" with them.  I didn't get the ends woven into the wash cloths but that is going to happen today.  I haven't watched the Oz movie so that is on today's agenda.

For a variety of reasons, today will be low-key.  (Allergies don't help.)  That's ok.  Yesterday, I put all my crocheting books in my Ravelry library as well as all my hooks.  The oldest booklet I had was dated 1956.  There are actually  a couple of shawl patterns to look at as candidates for Brooke's nursing shawl.  Today I would like to put my stash up and take pictures of what I have and of Casey's blanket. 

Brooke is teaching herself to crochet!  She found a book which has good illustrations of left-handed crocheting and she is off and running.  She showed me the hat she is working on and it looks great!  I introduced her to Ravelry.  She has two patterns for Halloween  costumes:  one is a spider costume, the other is an old lady in a walker!

Coffee finished, news on the TV -- time to get the day started.
