WOW!
That was a holiday season.<\/p>\n
This is, pretty literally, the first time I’ve had a chance to sit at the computer and do more than triage for over a month and a half. Thanksgiving, finals, Portland, surgery, Hanukkah, illnesses, Christmas, more illnesses\/asthma crud, New Year’s and…phew…<\/p>\n
I finished the socks for my father (allelu) before Xmas actually occurred and this year, instead of promising to knit things for people, I knit one sock each for husband and sons with a note: Does It Fit?<\/p>\n
Husband and Thing 1 socks fit perfectly, Thing 2 sock needs some lengthening. Kid socks are so easy and quick, I didn’t even use a pattern–yippee! So, battling Second Sock Syndrome easily since I had options and some lag time between the first sock and the final, I managed to knock out Thing 1’s companion sock in a couple of days (red-light-knitting…easy). Now nearly to the heel flap in husband’s sock, then on to the reconstruction of Thing 2’s.<\/p>\n
I’m still paining, quite a bit more than usual. I found this great site<\/a> via CraftyPod<\/a> (love!). Don’t bother looking at the site unless you have at least fifteen minutes. You’ll just be frustrated. It’s lovely. And provocative without being obnoxious. And smart. And funny.<\/p>\n All the things I want to be when I grow up.<\/p>\n So…resolutions, right? Okey dokey, in no particular order:<\/p>\n And that’s pretty good. That’s a lot. That’s ridiculous. I’ll be lucky to get around to one of those things. So that’s great. My polygamous goal-setting multi-crafting nature approves.<\/p>\n Thank goodness.<\/p>\n You?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" WOW!That was a holiday season.
