More Leaves

I'm on the third repeat of the Backyard Leaves pattern and I am in love. I can already tell that I'm going to have to make another one of these lovely scarves. Yummy.

The green is really hard to photograph - it's a lot greener and prettier than it looks in my subpar photos. Trust me. I'll have to try to get a natural light shot this weekend so you can really see.

I'm still working on the zipper saga, although I think I found 2 teal zippers from Zipper Stop that might work (and I'm gettting a color card too - for next time).

I did my first run last night. I ran for 5 minutes, walked for 3 minutes 3 times. My new shoes are good (I think) and my legs aren't sore today. So, run #2 tomorrow night. Riley was so excited he was barking and running around before we got out the door. Do you think the dog needs some exercise? Wow.

Have a great day. Happy knitting.

Wow, you are moving right along on that scarf! Is the repeat memorizable?

Riley is like your in-house running partner! I read your post at Knit and Fit, and can't believe its getting cold near you already...brrr. good job on the run!

That's so nice Riley gets to run with you. Abner would be jealous, we won't tell him. I hope in a few weeks he gets to go back to some nice walks. No running for him though.

The scarf is looking great, I can see why you like it. Is that from the Scarf Style book?

I love the Backyard Leaves scarf and am interested in knitting this one myself. However, I am daunted by the chart. Any thoughts on knitting lace? You seem to be pretty good at it!

Lookin goooooood :) And good job with the running! You're much better than me, I've been sitting on my butt all weekend doing homework. Oh well, at least it's been productive.

Good luck with your running!

I'm still waiting for my zipperes from Zipperstop! I'm sure I'll get them when I'm in CA. I wanted to bring Olive with me...oh well!
