It's kind of surreal: in about five weeks, I'm going to be living 6 hours away. Not that I have time to pack, I'm inundated with schoolwork, paid work, and sleeping.
I frogged back my interlocking leaves socks and started on a Pomatomus socks - I love the pattern, but I've been struck by an unforeseen hitch in my work.
My needle snapped. I tried to tape it, but it's bamboo, and it just won't stick together. *dramatic sigh*
Work on my moose has been halted for a while, now. W wants to fill the frame out with foam, which annoys me a little. It would be so much easier to have the frame first, and then knit to that shape - and, after I leave for New Hampshire, how am I going to finish this? I can't.
Plus, I'd like to have the needles back to do other toys!
Anyway, knitting progress has gone very slow, and I haven't really done any cooking or crafting that is otherwise impressive. I haven't even planted any seeds - I figure it would be cruel bringing them into the world when I don't know if they'll have a balcony or windowsill to rest on. My mint hasn't come up, either.
Good luck with the move! By the way, is that six hours of driving or 6 hours as in a different time zone? Six hours from NY would put you in Italy, among other possibilities. :)
ReplyDeleteHope you can get a replacement needle soon. The socks look lovely so far.
