Daughter's Tonsil/Adenoid Removal

My daughter went in for surgery today to have her tonsil and adenoids removed, I'm watching by grandbabies. We went for a short walk with Bonny when we came back the boys fed the fish and turtles. I made them lunch and we made some beaded necklaces. Watched some TV. Mom's surgery went well and mom, dad and pop should be home around 4 or 4:30.  I'm spending the night at her house in case she needs anything as her husband has to go to work tomorrow.

As for my knitting I had to frog a few rows and make an adjustment to my pattern to enable for a salvage st.  After this adjustment I should be OK, I hope. I'm not sure how much knitting I'll actually get as I will be babysitter/nurse mom.

Slimming Sweater

The other day I was flipping through a Soft Surroundings catalog and came across this cute sweater. It's a very basic lace pattern and simple to knit.  I'm sure it would be much easier to just go and buy the sweater but there is the fun in that.

Last night I finished the bottom edge of the back of the sweater, homing to complete a bit more of the main body pattern.
