knitting


Knitting socks in the morning with coffee and thinking about what I could do today, not should because these days of staying home the sense of urgency is gone. No agenda planning, no meetings, no social gatherings, no setting deadlines or bargaining with myself to get this done then I can do that. A feeling of limbo but also a feeling of enjoy the moment then seize the day.
After I have seized the day I can cozy up in front of the tv and work on this sweater.  It is a cotton, wool, silk, and rayon blend and feels delicious in my hands.  Knitting is so much more enjoyable if you like the way the yarn feels in your hands .  By using  a short cable the stitches move themselves along the cable so I can knit faster.  I'll have this sweater done in no time then no place to go to wear it.  Seize your day —Ann—

  2. Great sock yarn! I love the colors. You are so right, too. When a yarn feels nice it makes knitting so much better.
