back from the wedding

The wedding this weekend was lovely.  A small family wedding where it felt like everyone had known each other for years even if we just met.  Most of us were there for more then one day so the celebration really started two days before and went to the day after.  There was so much laughter and talking, just a very good time.  I came away with a boutonniere because the bride could not see it in the trash.  

This shawl was there with me.  I was not the only one with a yarn project but I was the one who took theirs down to the beach.  I am so not surprised and neither was my Beloved.  I sat in the sun.  Waded in the ocean.  Worked on the shawl.  It was a good time and I am deep into the second skein.  I find projects that are more self contained are wonderful for traveling, just like this one.

Now, we are home for awhile.  I have two projects to finish before Thanksgiving week.  One is looking like it will be no problem.  The other may be tight.  We will see.
