I Was Here

Where is that? Up North at an awesome place called Canada Creek Ranch. My husband and I are members here. Since I no longer work my time up there is more frequent than his. On this day we had snow, obviously, and it was also my knitting group day. One of the ladies took a photo of me wearing my Antler sweater, my new gloves and my matching hat. Maybe I’ll share it here after she shares it with our group.

I’m home now. I could have written while up there but it seemed that being there for two full days and just a few hours on the other two just didn’t get me in the mood to spend much time on my laptop or the internet in general. Pretty much all I did was delete e-mails so that all those Black Friday messages weren’t piling up into the millions. It seems that we just celebrated Labor Day and now all this snow makes us feel like it’s Christmas time and we’re hopping and skipping right past Thanksgiving.

My 2018 Temperature Blanket is on my lap right now and once I finish the row I’m knitting May will be completed. So, it appears that I am just a few months behind, right?  Some simple math would tell me how many rows to knit each day or week to catch up. Right.

There’s a pair of socks on my needles and another sweater. The sweater is #18 from Vogue Knitting Spring/Summer 1988. This one is to meet the #18 in 2018 for the Ravelry challenge. After this one I need to pick a design – any pattern – from 2018 to meet the VK 2018 in 2018. I’ve completed a Then, an any design from a year ending in 8, am working on the #18 then just the current. The current project can spill on over to early next year as long as I have it started.

There’s barking going on behind me. The joys of being owned by a Rat Terrier.
