This year for our Jess, Hannah, Todd & Olivia adventure we started out by meeting up in Bayonne. The first day Todd and I had to work so after breakfast Hannah and Jess set off to explore Manhattan. Since no trip is complete without hitting every yarn store possible I pointed them towards the nearest one. There Jess picked up some yarn to make baby booties and when we got home we got out the winding equipment to turn the hanks into balls.
Since winding yarn is Todd's favorite part of knitting except for ripping stuff out I enlisted Todd and Hannah's help to tackle a huge hank of cotton yarn. I'd had a few false starts with it before since I'd gotten twisted somehow, but I was hoping that a group effort would make short work of it.
Here we are at the Bronx Zoo sporting our new koala, tiger, elephant, and lion ear headbands.
A peacock tried to sneak home with the departing zoo visitors at the end of the day.
Buddy was happy to see Jess and Hannah and to let them shower him with attention.
Huzzah! The grey yarn has been turned in to ready to use balls. Thanks Todd and Hannah!
On our last day in NJ we had a terrific time with Todd's uncle Jonathan.
We even got Todd's cousin Whitney knitting!
