Montreal

Our first away tournament this season - Montreal. Fun was had by all. The kids took home silver and had a taste of old Montreal at the Papillion Restaurant - fab pasta!!! Unfortunately, I had little time to venture  the yarn shops - tant pis! We spent Friday getting lost on the crazy spaghetti highways on our way from our hotel downtown to Pointe Claire, only to spend the rest of the weekend in another parent's van with GPS. Completely sold on the virtues of said GPS, Lou went out and bought one the minute we returned home. I look forward to never nattering at each other over directions again!

The 6 hour drive gave me a chance to work out a new difficult scarf pattern to add to my patterns for sale. I used Blue Sky Alpaca to make it cozy against your neck. I hate the colour I used, so back to the drawing board!
