I'll be on a little blogcation for the next week: The Sweetie and I are off to Hawaii for some relaxation. We're going to the Big Island, and it will be our first time to that island. (If you have recommendations, feel free to leave them in comments!)So a few weeks ago, he said to me, "You know, you're going to have to think about what knitting to bring."

Wow Kim, that looks great already!
That's going to be a fantastic combination for a chevron scarf!
Have a wonderful trip!
Oh how pretty that chevron will be.
Hawaii. Many years ago. Mama's fish house in Mauii near the airport. Everyone knew it then. Absolutely best fun place we ate at.
Your scarf will be perfect Hawaiian knitting. Have a great trip!
Have a great time! I am not sure what the daily lava flow shall be while you are here, but call the park: It changes every day and is amazing. Stargazing up Mauna Kea is unreal. Of course I recommend Scuba Diving: Come dive with me at Kohala Divers! Kona coffee tasting, macnut sampling, vanilla orchid farm: If you are into Agri-tourism. Eat at Merriman's and Huli Sue's in Waimea, Sushi Rock in Hawi, Hilo Bay Cafe in Hilo. And pick up a free copy of the Hawaii Island Journal (the independant news) for other tips. Aloha!
