December - to - now

Yes, I really did have a finish.   I finished knitting my maroon scarf.   Seed Stitch in December.   


I'm pretty close to finishing the blue/grey scarf, too.
I have added the fringe on one end.   have the fringe cut for the final end - so, am just knitting the 8 row repeat until the yarn is used up.   Probably 6 more inches.   


On to wanderlust ... 

... in December, DH + I visited Florida for a few days.   North Miami to visit the Ancient Spanish Monastery, link here.   





... and the Japanese garden in
Delray Beach, FL.   Link here.



... and Kissimmee, FL ...


Back at Home - view from window:

(camera went into hiding for a few weeks)

Was back at the AIC during snow flurries - enjoyed the new contemporary / modern exhibit, the  bronze lace bowl on the terrace, and of course "the bean" in Millennium Park.



Meanwhile, Mom was visiting family in Missouri -- so, I drove & picked her up.   Stopped at the St. Louis Art Museum, too.



... home again.   No trips planned for awhile.

Beautiful scarves! I can't decide which color I like better. I usually pick red but that shade of blue is lovely! Wonderful pictures of your trip also.
