Just Another Manic Monday

We began our day by delivering our ballots to the City Clerk.  Certain sense of relief about that. It is done, locked away until the polls close at 8 PM on Election Day.

Later, after our walk, I re-learned to knit with a dog on my lap. We have had Libby for two weeks today and she is really settled in. And misbehaving on a minor scale, like carrying my walking shoes around in her mouth and stealing tissues out of the wastebaskets.  Nothing major, she really is housebroken.  But today, instead of laying next to me, she insisted on laying in my lap while I finished two projects. 

First, I finally put the buttons on a sweater I made for KTG.  It is knit from Leisure Arts Knitted Seamless Raglans, one of my favorite pattern books. No sewing together!  I used Red Heart Cotton in Blue Mist.  The buttons are tiny multicolored butterflies.

Then yesterday I cast on leg warmers for KTG. I used Red Heart Eco Cotton, 75% recycled cotton and 25% acryllic. It was the first time I had used this yarn and I love it. The color is Midnight Marl, and it has tiny shades of purple and green in the midnight blue.
