Hooray! I have finally finished my sumer linen top. Just in time to hopefully wear it once before I hang it in the shop! I don't know why it's taken me so long; perhaps it's because I haven't actually been at the top of my "knitting game" this summer! Every time I sit down to knit, I relax and fall asleep, nodding over my needles. One night I didn't even get a whole row knitted even though I jolted awake many times to knit a stitch or two. 
    It came out well, though (my top, not the row...). I like the drape of linen and it is a very comfortable fiber to wear. 
    So... on to the next project. This one is a UFO from last spring. I am knitting my second "Flyaway" cardigan. I have one hanging in the shop, but I thought I'd make a second one so that I would have one to use,too. This will work way better than my usual method, which is to come trotting downstairs to the shop , fully dressed but for a top, to frantically look around for what might go with the day's outfit!
