Well, I somehow managed to relax on our vacation to visit my Colorado family this last weekend. I'm not good at relaxing, so getting in the car and leaving Wisconsin was a great way to force me to sit still for a bit (15+ hours of sitting still). I'll share more details on our trip in the near future...

Remember the Journey-Along July Giveaway that's coming up on July 15th? Well, here's a peek at the prize:

The winner will be randomly selected on Tuesday, July 15th. To be eligible for this and all giveaways, just make sure you've filled out this form and have cast on a Journey project (you only need to sign up once). Don't forget to check in on our Journey-along Ravelry thread and tag your projects with the hashtag #journeyalong. Full Journey-along details can be found here...

I do still have Inland on my needles, but working on a bulky-weight, one-piece, long-cardigan didn't seem to be the best car project, so today I want to show you these:

Yup, I'm working through Climb (for the 3rd time) and I cast these on in Colorado for my 'non-thinking' knitting - these will actually be for me. The yarn is Regia's Fluormania in the Neon Rainbow colorway - I'm a huge fan of Regia's super-durable sock yarn and this bright version is extra fun!

I didn't have time to wind the yarn into 2 balls before we left on vacation last week, so I decided to get crazy when I cast on and just 'go with it'. I'm working from the inside and outside of the ball so the stripes aren't matching up - deep breaths - but now they're both starting to stripe orange, so I'm feeling like there's a little less chaos here. lol!

I do have a couple other projects that I cast on when we were in Colorado and some other goodness to share, so stay tuned!

I'm off to try more of that relaxing thing. Cheers!
