Looking Towards a Great Day

Friday was not sweater day really.  As I was writing I forgot that I had planned to trick myself into knitting small things by making Friday a small things day.  I did knit on a sock in the afternoon Friday.  It was lovely to do that.  

I like this particular Kroy colour.  Plain stripes are not often found in commercial sock yarn.  At least not the ones in my sock yarn bin.  This sock won't be as long as I ended up making my Advent socks.  Those were 12 inches long between toe and cuff and that is just too long with my stubby feet.  The cuffs are too long.  I think I must have done 10 inches from toe to cuff on afterthought heel socks before rather than 12.  Oh well.  This pair will be my usual, which happens when I get tired of it rather than being a certain number of inches.

I have been giving myself the weekends to knit on something else but I found myself just wanting to keep knitting on the blue.   So, blue knitting it was.

I am pleased.  It's coming along nicely.  Sure it is just a plain stockinette raglan sweater but this colour is so good.  It raises my spirits to no end.  I did a try on yesterday.  It was perfect.  

I am also at the place where I should be thinking about adding the pockets from the Mayhemma sweater.  I love that idea but I am no longer as certain that I want to do them in this sweater.  I really love this as it is.  I can do that another time.  

So, more blue knitting today. It's going to be a great day.
