The Tennessee trip to LaFollette to visit Granny and Papaw was short but there was a lot of sitting on the back porch, talking, so I managed to do some rather fitting knitting in the form of a Mitered Hanging Towel from the second Mason Dixon knitting book.
I left this one with Granny but might knit another. I don't think I would make it a hanging towel - the finished product had a messy feel to it that I didn't like for some odd reason. Maybe a different choice of color and a bigger button (this one was scavenged) would make a difference, though.
I also seriously gained a couple of pounds and have to blame it on the banana pudding. I love Granny's banana pudding.
