Mom's day

Today's mother's day, and I'm very excited about the present I sent Mom. This past winter I spent a good deal of time being sick and/or sitting on my couch. It's what's done in the winter time. And, as you know, knitting is so conducive for sitting on the couch and/or being sick. So to kill time I made Mom this throw (read 'small blanket') made out of mohair and wool. It's really soft and heavy and is actually quite big for something I knitted. Of course I had intended to make it for her birthday last September, but that ship sailed pretty early on. It took me almost three months to finish, and I was so glad to get it done. I finished it in March and finally mailed it to her last week. So now I'm sitting here waiting, not wanting to wake her up, but wanting to call and wish her a happy mother's day and get the review for the blanket. I don't think she even knew I was working on it. Tee hee.
