Minimalist

OK, so the a/c in my office has not been fixed. But for some reason, when my handspun socks were finished, I got an urge to work on the cardigan. You know. The one I was making as an office sweater. Well, it’s still hot, but I’m actually enjoying working on the cardigan. I’m re-knitting the sleeves because I knit them in the wrong size the first time. I’m crossing my fingers that this time it works, because after all that work and excitement, I will be extremely disappointed if the thing doesn’t fit me. I’m about 1/2 way through the length of the first sleeve, then I move on to the sleeve cap.

Going on vacation next week to Florida with the baby. I plan on taking all my WIPs so I can work on each on. I just need to make sure to take enough yarn. That’s always the hardest part. Trying to decide how much yarn to take with me. Just exactly how much knitting time will I get? If I take an extra skein of each required color for all 4 projects, plus my drop spindle and some fiber, I’m sure to have enough to keep me knitting all week, even if I do run out of yarn for one project and can’t continue it. So I should  be okay.

One thing I’m hoping is that I make significant progress on the cabled bag and the cardigan sleeves. The afghan and the shawl can be my side projects for now.

I write code by day, and knit and/or read by night. Somewhere in all that I'm a mother and wife too.
