Dana with her Clara dress. The photo doesn't do the dress (or Dana) justice -- they're both really cute. Andrea's in the background, beneath our shedding ficus tree. And John's doing some swift wrangling.
Here's some of the food. Dried persimmons from the Asian market, poppyseed cookies with marmalade, spicy hot biscotti, pepper and purple potato frittata, olives, and bread. More cookies, cheese, and crackers made appearances later in the day.
Random photos from throughout the day:
You could tell when it was time to begin the herringbone project. Coffee cups were refilled, plates of food were set aside, and people gathered on the couch near the best light source. Why is Dana smiling? Because she has just cast on. She has no idea what's in store. Deep into the pattern rows, John and Jennifer, in contrast, are using all of their energy to concentrate. And sigh.
Knitting is serious business:
And the let-down, after everyone left.
