Costa Rica: Knitting and other activities

I did some knitting in Costa Rica.  I planned for two projects, one easy and one difficult.

Honeymoon_socks

On the left, La Digitessa knit using Wollmeise yarn using the La Digitessa colorway. On the right, my own pattern using the Crown Mountain Farm Sock Hop yarn.  I wanted something that was mindless but still interesting, and something that was impossible to mess up the pattern.  I settled on randomly inserting 8 purl stitches across 20 stitches on the top of the foot.  Impossible to mess up because there was no pattern, and it was kind of fun. 

Unpatterned

When we weren't relaxing, David and I also did a lot of activities offered by the resort. We hiked a lot, soaked in tide pools, went horseback riding, went kayaking, waterfall rappeled, went bird watching, zip lining, and stood under some amazing waterfalls.

Honeymoon Adventures

Whew!
