Adele's Baby Blanket
I'm currently in the process of updating my projects on Ravelry which I plan to blog about as I go. This one was for our friends' baby, Adele. I'm happy to say she received it while she was still a baby - 4 years ago. I have a lot of posting catching up to do.

Greek Key Placemats
We're back from March Break. It was a wonderful week at my mother-in-law's in Quebec. It's been very difficult to get back into the old routine since this week has been anything but routine. Things have been going a little nuts, thus making it difficult to get a blog post out or update my projects on Ravelry.
I am finally going to finish one of my UFOs. I started this back in 1996 inspired by a technique article called "Dropped-Stitch Weaving" in the Spring/Summer 1996 issue of Vogue Knitting - SCARY. I have UFOs that old; predating the birth of my children. I got bored with it because it was so simple and not really challenging, so I put it aside. Now, I look for that mindless, easy knitting to fill small gaps of time where I wish to be more productive and clear the horrendously large stash in my closet.
I will eventually post the project with free instructions to download on Ravelry. I'm getting there. I pressed the mats a couple of days ago. Now, I just have to do the weaving; which could take quite long. The photo below is of small sample I worked on.
