Onwards ho.

That's better.  I knit for much of the day and it was so good. 

I'm not far along but it felt so good to simply knit.

 

I am just about to join ball 5 and 6.  It seems like a lot of yarn is being used but I made this top with quite a bit of ease and good width on the drop shoulders.  It makes for comfortable wear on hot days and it will give me the option to wear it over a shirt to extend the seasons I can wear it.  

All the ease makes it feel like it takes a long time to do a round but it really doesn't.  It's a head game.  There seems to be a lot of that in knitting.  

Still, it's time to dig it out of the 'yarn bowl'

And get to work.  Coffee is hot and precious and tea awaits the rest of the day.
