Blues and changes

Published on by Jane7 Comments

Why, yes, I do knit. This is my Flower Basket shawl, still on the small side, but there has been progress. Although I’m past that horrible black mood I was in on Wednesday — and can I tell you how fantastic it was to have that little episode be the one that I had to post for Day in My Life? — it’s been hard to get back to what really matters. I’m almost there. The shawl is Knitting That Requires Attention, so I’m doing just that. I lost my groove the other day, and I’m working on getting it back today.

My Fairgrounds Rockin’ Sock Club sock will be ready for a photo shoot soon — it’s coming along, too.

The weather, though. It’s beautiful. It heard my pleas, or else all my stomping around was a reverse rain dance, and I made the sun come out. Either way, how can I not enjoy life on a day like today?

And in the spirit of PS June…

I have more, but I’ll save them for another time.

I joined the Knit Sock Kit Swap, dreamed up by Bev and Scout. Go on over and take a look! I haven’t participated in many exchanges (well, only two, if we’re counting), but this comes at a good time for me. It’s about socks, and I’ll get to create a sock kit (a bag, yarn, etc.) for my pal. I’ve been thinking about making a sock bag or two, so here’s my chance to give it a try. Signups end on Tuesday, June 13th at 8am EST.

Who knew I’d become such a joiner? It’s all good. I’ve connected with other knitters in ways I don’t get to in my regular life. Seeing what others are knitting, sharing progress and projects, giving a little here and there — I guess it’s a “K is for Knitting” thing.
