It was an odd sort of weekend. I wanted to do something but everything I did was not right. I didn't want that or this or anything. I was discombobulated and unsettled and out of sorts.
Friday I was knitting on my Mashup Top. I was feeling good about that but then I saw I dropped a stitch 5 rows below. I fixed it once and then saw that I missed the first of the dropped rows of yarn so I did it again. Then this.
I set it aside. I can't do repairs like this if I am frustrated. I'm not ready to do it today either.
I picked up my Kauni sweater and worked desultorily on that. My heart wasn't in it so there isn't much progress. Even then progress was slow because I am at the counting part where I needed to know my stitch number and gauge to check if I am ready to split for sleeves.
What I really feel like doing is a deep stash dive. The thought of that appeals to me. I can pull out what I need to make repairs on a few sweaters and I can see what appeals to me for spring and summer garments. I can also put some of my winter sweater making away. It seemsmy desires were bigger than my knitting speed. As usual.
I did come across a movie that I really enjoyed. It as an old one and really great if you are a Father Brown fan. The movie was The Detective with Alec Guiness. It is the closest representation of the Father Brown to the books in character. In my opinion of course. It's a gem of a movie.
And that's it for today. I have to go find my vacuum now. Before the stash dive, I must deep clean the floors.
