Good week

Adamas
I finished Adamas earlier last week, which I am really proud of because its my first triangular shawl. This was a fun knit and has really got me in lace mode. I love the way the light yarn feels during the hot summer months.

My dad had his biopsy yesterday. He is pretty sore from it, but the radiologist made sure that he and the pathologist got enough tissue to get a good sample so that we can get an official diagnosis and start his treatment as soon as possible. Please keep him in your thoughts.

Jered and I are getting ready for our bike trip. We got our package of gear from Performance in the mail this week. We both got a pair of new bike shorts, and rain jackets, and I got a new pair of bike shoes. I'm very excited about getting away for a little while. I think I will come back refreshed. In a way, I feel sort of guilty for going away right now, especially since my dad is just starting his treatment, but they have told us to go ahead and go. I have mixed feelings about it, but I am glad that we have an opportunity to get away for a little while.

I'm on the third repeat of my new Madli stole. The Alpaca Cloud is really nice! It's very slippery, but not too slippery to stay on the needles. I'll try and post some pictures of the progress later this weekend.
