Slow Going
This is the current sock. Well, actually, this is the current sock as photographed yesterday. I dearly hope that it is now somewhat longer and more sock like in appearance.
Life has not been providing me the recommended amounts of knitting time over the last few weeks, and progress on the sock has been slower than one might like. But, the next few days have a bit of road tripping, and with any luck, that means a bit of knitting time (though I seem to have an off switch in my butt, so sometimes road trips mean lots of naps). I’ve cleverly packed the requisite pillows and blankets (car knitting is all about elbow management for me, and I have to have juuuuuust the right assortment of elbow props to make it comfortable), and hope to have the first sock done later today.
This sock and the yarn to make a pair of slippers are all the knitting I’m bringing on the trip, so I’m hoping to make good progress. And the trip does start at Rhinebeck, so it’s not like I won’t be able to get more supplies if the urge falls upon me. Let’s hope the next sock pic is taken somewhere more picturesque and demonstrates way more actual sock.
I worked on my knitting in the car yesterday on my trip home from the cabin. I love car knitting but like you I also have a off switch in my butt that causes me to fall asleep.
Have a safe and happy road trip. I do wish I could be driving to Rhinebeck too; )
i’m once again reading your blog and as usual LOVING your design. And once again asking myself why on earth I have yet to purchase any of your books? I MUST CHANGE THIS
Hah, too funny. I feel like I should launch into a spiel worth of a public radio pledge drive! I think I’ll just say they’ll be there for you when you’re ready for them!
