Well, I’m better, but I’m still skipping Sit & Knit tonight. :( I look forward to my weekly coffee & chat fix, and between traveling and being sick, I’ve missed it for three weeks now. Waaaaah. I hope no one’s too mad at me, I lost track of time and forgot to call anyone to say I wouldn’t be there.
Anyway, another Christmas present is just a couple of rows away from being done. For that matter, I have one that’s mere yards away from done-ness…however, I don’t have those yards. Really, I can do math: 2/3 of 750 yards is 500, right? So of course a 430 yard skein should be enough. Really. Grrr. I have to get better so I can go buy another skein of yarn before they run out of the dye lot. I’m not sure what I’m going to do with the extra 360 yards, though.
Speaking of yards, I was thinking yesterday. (Yeah, yeah, I know, it’s a rare occurrence.) I realized that when I knit an adult sweater, anywhere from 1-2 miles of yarn travels through my fingers. That’s pretty cool to think about!
Uh-oh. I just ran out of Kleenex…I think there’s another box in the linen closet…I have to go look, and then get back to knitting!
dude i know how you feel. i am at work today for the first time since monday and my head is soooo heavy it’s making my neck really sore!!
