This is the white shell afghan I recently made and sent to my daughter. I love this pattern because it's so easy and so beautiful. Now I am on the lookout for a very easy pattern for a hat (baby or adult) that I can do on straight needles. Every pattern I see these days calls for either circular or double pointed and while I don't mind the circular, the DDPs and I just aren't all that friendly. So maybe if I have time this week on my day off (Friday!) I will cruise the net to see what's out there. It's still way too hot for me... this is July weather, not June! Weather report just said it's going to be 100 or higher for yet another week. You'd think I'd lose some weight all this melting I'm doing but alas, I don't think so. Hope I can knit a little this week despite the heat!
