Dealing with Anxiety in my own way.

It is always so quiet when the kids go home but it is clear that I can't really do that anymore.  I love it but even though they are growing so fast, and only need the smallest bit of monitoring, I get so tired.  Ah well.  Cassie's art project is a lot of fun and she will come back next weekend to do some more as well as her time in class.  I can't wait to see what she creates.

I had some good knitting time on Sunday.  



I love how this sweater is turning out.  It is everything I hoped it would be.  The stripes keep it moving as stripes always do.  It is so near completion that I am just bursting, waiting to wear this.  

At the same time, I found myself slightly...bored.  I needed something but I did not know what.  It was anxiety inducing.  I felt skittery and antsy and jumpy.  


I dug through all the yarns in the WIPs bin and went through the stuff beside it.  I did not feel like socks or a hat and yet I had an itch I really needed to scratch.  

I came to the bag with the London Fog yarn that has been two sweaters already.  My hands kept going to it because it is so lovely to knit with.  In the blink of an eye, 



A sweater is begun.  Just a simple Tolsta this time.  It will show off the gorgeous yarn.  And then somehow, I could settle down to rest.
