Roadtrip!

Over Memorial Day weekend we drove to my in-laws, about 4 hours away. I got some knitting done on the green socks and also some cross stitching done over the weekend. Not sure why i did not do more of the letters before
I think the letters will really help me figure out the cat placement. Adding the grid has helped me not be so lost on the project. It may take a while but i feel like i will actually finish this project someday. 
Here is my Hitchhiker. I need to weave in ends and maybe block it. I am happy with it! It was really fun process knitting, simple but you still have to pay attention on what row you were on. 

I bought yarn for a shawl for my mom. I have been listening to the knitting pipeline podcast for years. I finally checked out quince & co yarns. I love that they are made in the USA. Also i wanted to knit something for my mom. I decided to go with piper's journey by paula from knitting pipeline. Hopefully i can start on that soon. http://quinceandco.com/products/pipers-journey
Here is the yarn. The color is glacier. So excited! Happy to splurge on USA yarn for a special project. 
Another thing i am working on for band postcards. My husbands band just finished their 2nd cd and the special package includes demos, their 1st cd and some post cards. (Maybe something else i am forgetting) so i need to make 2 postcard designs. This is one but i need to finish and print it. 
Busy times!! Planted part of the garden today because we finally got soil! Yay!
