Gruyere-bacon wheel, almond croissant, lemon tart quart of whole milk, quart of plain yogurt, quart of maple granola, macaroons (pistachio, lemon, lavender), chocolate cherry bread, sirloin steaks, pink lady apples, bosc pears, corn bread mix, 3 Nigerian beef handpies, 2 lentil picadillo handpies, a roasted veggie corn muffin, an
extreme chocolate chip stack, a snickerdoodle stack, a chewy ginger stack, and apricot almond butter cookies.
While I was making my last loop, a woman stopped me to ask if my hat was the Swan Tam, pattern by Ron Schweitzer. She is involved in getting his website (https://www.knittingtales.com) up and running, and had never seen a Swan Tam in the wild before -- which is not surprising. The store that sold his designs has been closed for around 20 years and I am literally the only person who has made one listed on Ravelry.
She asked if she could take a picture, and I was okay with that as long as my face didn't appear. She was also wearing a Ron Schweitzer sweater, one of his sheltand patterns that goes through gradients of natural colored wool.
I'm glad to know the patterns are available online now -- I'll probably buy the Swan Jacket pattern again (so I can finally finish it) and maybe one or two of the others. They are really pretty, just a lot of work.
Later I joined my Meetup group for a short-ish hike through Rock Creek Park, and was so glad I wore layers so I could take them off. I'm tired now and I'm probably going to be sore tomorrow.
