Clouds, some knitting and pasta

The clouds over Portland today were amazing from the office.  Every time I went to the printer they had some new shape.  I finally remembered that I had my camera in my bag…here is one of the lovely views.

This weekend I was able to make it to Abundant Yarn (the LYS just across the bridge from me) to ask them about the dog attacked sweater.  They said that yes it was fixable! So I went to a drop in class on Sunday and learned the technique that I will be using to fix it, I have to say that the staff at Abundant Yarn are so helpful!   So I have two rows re-created but there are still quite a few left to go, I have been working on this for as long as I can and then go back to Clapotis that I am working on.  The mending will take a lot longer than the time it took the dog to chew the hole, but I am very glad that I am learning how to fix such things!

Today I got a new toy for my kitchen adventures.  I have been looking at a pasta roller for quite some time and found this one on Craigslist for a great price!  It was quite the adventure for me to make pasta from scratch…especially since I am already a messy cook.
