October 8th

Do you realize that I’ve been blogging for 8 years? Where the hell did the time go? I’ve been having fun picking random months and re-reading. It lulls me to sleep at night.
I’m still wondering what the hell happened to all that embroidery stuff I was working on. Sometimes, I’m surprised to find out I knit.
Sweaters even. I started one at the beginning of this year. Almost down to the arm hole splits. Then it got hot. In March. I spent yesterday stringing it onto waste yarn, checking fit, counting stitches and figuring out what the hell I was doing. The couple of rows I added seemed to work out, so I think I’m good.
I was going to spend today working on it, but my hand knit stash has been raided! Who steals hand knits?!?!
Apparently, a poor, hand knit neglected husband. I need to find some quick and easy hats to whip out for Texas that “coordinate” with his polo shirt of the day. Or mine can continue to disappear.
I may even knit him a pair of house socks. Crazy!
Of course, all those “plans” only apply if I don’t fall asleep while I’m curled up on the couch, trying to stay warm.
Happy Monday y’all!
House socks! I vote for house socks!
There’s a navy blue hat here that needs mailing, and black (& that gray) yarn waiting to be turned into hats. After that, I’ll need color ideas.
Wanna frog a sweater for me? It’s mallard colored yarn…
You have dogs and cats, right? Make them snuggle you.
Eight years? Holy cow.
Congrats on keeping up with the blog for 8 years!!
Eight years is a bunch! Congratulations on reaching this milestone! If you knit the sweater, you can warm up underneath it, and that makes for a great nap on the couch, too! xo
