Yeah.  No.  Not getting it done in one week of desultory work.  I had to stop yesterday because I took a stitch and looked at it and thought, good heavens, I hate this.  I made it to thenext blue stripe though so I am good with that.  

I am going to knit today and enjoy it.  Because I can.  The Sock Monkey sweater is almost ready for a try on so that is what I will aim for this weekend.  Good to go.

Determined

Made it!  


I made it to the next black stripe and am officially halfway.  Or mostly halfway.  This is going to get done this week by gosh.  

I am determined.

I did not get to the sewing room.  Maybe today.

Crocheting again!

I did not knit at all yesterday.  I did however, go back to a work project.  



My wing has sorted itself out enough to crochet and I dearly want to get this project done.  Today I am devoting my time to getting this done.  

It isn't that I don't like crochet.  I do.  I have done that much longer than knitting.  What I don't enjoy is making towel toppers and that kind of serviceable things that have no creativity in them.  Like chair pads.  I really appreciate the wool to sit on but I deeply dislike the making process.  Plus I just want this yarn out of my wool closet!

It may take a day or two to get the chair pad done but it is going to get done. And then I am going into my sewing room to sort it out.  It's been a while since I did anything in there and it shows.  Time to get it prepped and tidied for actual sewing.  

I hope to get to those things today.  We shall see.
