I've had a whirlwind few days. Friday morning was my graduation and then my sister's graduation (I got my BA, she got her MA) was later that evening. Despite the 90 degree temperatures my family managed to stay pretty calm throughout the hectic day.
It was hard for me to get excited about graduation; even as I put on my robe and silly mortar-board hat I felt like it was just any other day (albeit a day with funnier clothes). It wasn't until I walked into the huge theater with Pomp and Circumstance blaring that I really felt the monumentality of the occasion. I enjoyed every moment of my graduation, and I even felt a lump rise in my throat when my favorite professor handed me my diploma. This is a strange time for me, but an exciting one. I look forward to figuring out what direction my life will go in.
I have more graduation photos, and more photos from my excellent weekend with my family. I'll post those in the next few days. In the meantime, here's a photo of my progress on the Printed Silk Cardigan. Nine inches! I'm having a bit of trouble with my stitch count, but I don't think it'll be something rip-worthy. I'm confident that I will be able to save it-- afterall, I'm only a few stitches off.

See, I'm so happy.

You'll certainly be able to save it. :) Congratulations! I loved walking across stage, I want to do it again and again! But not enough to actually do the work for a masters.
