Traveling Along with My Irish Coffee

I have been traveling along the East Coast and so there hasn't been time for much knitting. The weather has been great and so I am out and about doing the tourist thing and visiting with friends and family.  Started out in New York City where I visited with Fae, a friend who does a lot of knitting and beadwork.  She just bought an incredible co-op in the West Village; look at this view from her rooftop:

                                                                             

                                                                           

    That's the new World Trade Center building and on the other side she has a view of the Empire State building  -  not too shabby!


                                                                               

Here are a few pictures of her beading projects:

                                                                              

Stopped by Knitty City on West  79th Street:

                                                                             

and saw this cute summer sweater called Isis from the Rowan All Seasons Chunky Collection:

                       

Here's my slow progress on my Irish Coffee:

                                                                         

On to the next part of my trip; I'm stopping in at WEBS just in time for their May sale!
