This is for my friend Dawn. She has the figure for it... not me.

We met when I was in the 9th grade and have been friends...wow

....this September will make 19 years. Now I feel old.
I'm about 10.5 inches into the pattern and loving it. The color is great and I'm using STASH YARN! Rather than the yarn specified I am using a worsted weight acrylic. She has 2 little ones and I don't think she needs the hassle of hand wash items.
So without further ado, allow me to present Coachella, The Beginning. (and a very grainy pic of Me and Dawn at her wedding last September.)
