Ok, I have enough of little Lena's blanket done so that you can see the pattern .  As pretty as it is, it really is an easy pattern, just looks difficult.  For the pattern name see 2 blogs down.  I've got 3 skeins of yarn in it so far, have 7 more to go :P.  It's a very relaxing pattern to do and looks nice too, how much better can it get :}. (see link for site where pattern is - I did add a border to it, but that is just my own choice.) http://www.heartstringsfiberarts.com/babyblanket.shtm 

I've been doing 30 min on the eliptical machine and 15 on the treadmill for about 2 1/2 weeks now.  What a work out that is.  Most of the time I'm doing 6 days a week, this week was only 5 tho.  It sure helps the muscles in my thighs and the part I sit on :P.
