It’s Wednesday & December 19th

Yes, I know this photo wasn’t taken today. All those photos are still on my camera waiting for me to get around to uploading them to my laptop. This is one of my favorites from the past few days. It seems that she likes to get her silly self into most of my outside photos. I did get a second shot of the ice in our walkway without her nose in it, but, she is off in the distance. She can’t get away from me, though since I keep her on a leash even on our land. She’s a runner and a fast one. Any critter gets her attention and off she goes.

What else am I doing? Unknitting. That would be knitting backwards or visiting the Frog Pond. Those of you who don’t know knitting technical terms wouldn’t know what visiting the Frog Pond would entail. That’s the act of going RipIt, RipIt or tinking.

The Vogue Knitting sweater #18 from 1988 is being taken apart before I finished it and decided that I would never wear it. The yarn is vintage Pinguoin that I bought off eBay and don’t want to finish the sweater and end up donating it. In case you’re too young to remember, the 1980s had a whole lot of gigantic clothing and hair. I didn’t participate in the big hair craze since my hair would never qualify for that. The big, oversized clothing wasn’t in my wardrobe, either. When you’re 5’1″ and 113 pounds those giant clothes don’t work well. So, the sweater is now back into the form of a bunch of yarn balls and future use is yet to be determined.

So, I will not be participating in the #18 in 2018 challenge this year. I’ll wait until #19 in 2019 and plan better. I did finish three vintage Vogue sweaters, though, and didn’t even start or think about a current 2018 sweater.

Back to my ADVENTurer KAL Scarf. I haven’t shared much about that here since I upload those photos directly to Flickr, Instagram then onto Ravelry so the photos aren’t on my laptop for sharing here.

Enjoy!
