Shut Up & Knit!

Allergy Season's HERE!

 

Pardon my schmutz.  The car needs a bath.

I've been working on my handspun Stella while trying to fight spring and her crafty minions.  Meds helped but the side-effects were not enjoyable, so now I'm sucking it up and praying for rain.

I hated how the contrast color looked with my Malabrigo handspun, so I'm using nothing but the handspun from two different cakes.  I think I love it.  I also think it may be all the pink and purple that there is in the world.

Yeah, I need to finish this thing and move on.

We had a freeze warning this morning.  Because of that, I'm not totally sure what I'll do next.  I need something mindless but mindless is boring.  So I'm still pondering.

Story of my life, right?

Happy Tuesday, people!

Escape From Sleeve Island!

It's easy to do if you're not working on sleeves.

It has issues but I still love it.

There's also a handspun handknit merino/silk/yak scarf that does not want to dry.  I'm sure running a vaporizer for hours on end hasn't helped the cause any.

I've been avoiding the sleeves and working on plans for other projects, laughing at the cold sheeping drama, and planning a little fun for the weekend.  Still boring and quite happy to be so.

What have you been up to while I've been pretending I don't have a blog?

Sleeves are boring

 

Mindless with amazing handspun yarn is much better than boring sleeves.  The downside that the sweater with sleeves in progress now seems to be living in the Ottoman of Shame.  The weather has taken a turn for the winter-like, so I should be knitting sleeves. 

However...

As we all know 'should' is not a fun word.

Can't blog... Spinning!

 

Once Upon A Time...

A husband called a knitter:  My wife feels frozen out socially but DON'T TELL HER I CALLED YOU!

Ummm...

Yeah...

I don't think anyone did tell her, however, pretty much everyone else heard about it.

I was thinking about that this morning while working on this:

Another example of things not working out as you might have thought.
