Finley

July 30th, I finished the Chain Link sweater today and I am now working on a promised August birthday present. Here is a picture of the pattern, called "Finley Sweater" by Anne Grace. It is a longish sweater in a neat Aran pattern, with rolled cuffs, a hood, and closed with toggles. It will be in a dark red varigated yarn. (Caron Simply Soft Paints) I will try to attach a pix of the yarn too. There, the reds seem a little darker in real life than on my monitor, but you can get the idea.

I am NOT going to post a finished pix of the chain link sweater for now. I will send it to Nicole and then hopefully post her picture wearing it. She has NOT tried this one on-- so hopefully it will fit. Since it is not as close fitting as the coral sweater or the green tank top, the exact fit is not as critical.

Please send prayers for #2 son who is in So Korea this week on a work project. Yes, the same son who races motorcycles and pilots planes. #1 DIL sends a new pix of her growing front. When they get a 20 wk ultrasound, I may post it to show everyone.

Tomorrow my favorite guy will be here to take care of his grandma. That will sure beat doing the laundry. I went out tonite and got some grapes.
Have a good week. Love to all, Noanie-Mom-Grandma
