Wow! It’s already a Tuesday! This week has been BUSY!
More Diamond Painting happened. I’m so happy my friends got me into it.
Haircutting is calling. This bob is getting to me. Maybe another pixie?
26 degrees and snow tonight. Tomorrow night single digits. Glad our bedrooms are warm!
And other tidbits
These are turning out fun.
Watching Dash and Lily. So cute.
A Boy Called Christmas grabbed me with the cute boy and talking mouse.
Started watching Tick, Tick, Boom. I’ll try to watch tomorrow.
It has been so cold (high of 22) that we spent most of the day in the bedroom. I did manage about an hour out in the living room. And another hour on Diamond Painting. Oh, my living room time was watching Lost in Space. DP time listening to Les Miserables. 75% finished. It’s long even on Audible.
Back to Dash/Lily and knitting.
I think these will be cozy on somebody’s toes.
Getting lots done, just not the things I would have wanted to do for family and friends. Instead, charity yarn makes charity gifts.
Made on 80 pegs of KB fine-gauge Flexee loom. Fold up brim. Flat knit-stitch throughout. Kind of made up the decreases in crown.
The minute the loom was empty I divided it in two and made two 40-peg sock looms. Here’s the Kitchener cast-on (we were watching the Witcher so I called the cast-on the Witchener, hehe).
Oh, and just for the curious, here’s the progress on the Diamond Painting. I can’t work at it for very long stretches but I do enjoy it.
Done!
Quick notes: Kitchener cast-on, CinDWood sock loom, German short-row heel, 2by2 rib-knit cuff.
Yay! Two more socks done! Done on the His looms of the KB His and Hers sock looms. Kitchener cast-on toe, flat-knit stitch through out. German short-rows for heels. Knit/Purl ribbed cuff.
And we got a call that we get our boosters on my birthday. I’m happy. ๐ค
I had to miss yesterday. I went to town (two hours away) to get an upper GI procedure done. I barely got 400 words before I left and had no energy when I got home for anymore. So today, I had to play catch up. My friend and I are finding when we get together on Zoom, we are reasonably productive. We do a bit of a chat but then get right to it. Sometimes we talk about our projects and somehow, bringing the story to light seems to give us a push. This is her first year in a long time that she’s felt up to NaNoWriMo. But she’s being gentle and keeping it accessible for herself to feel good about it. Her goal is 25K, and she is going great guns. I love hearing about her story.
My own story is coming along. It surprises me that the story that started out as a bunch of drawings for #Inktober. Yet the characters feel as real as if they lived in this house with me. Anyway, Crystal now has 26,873 words that make me just a smidge ahead of today’s count.
Knitting still continues. I think I will have a hat finished in the next few days. I can say, happily, that the mohair is finally gone!
I also have two pairs of socks in the making. This one is ahead of the race. I like to work on them two at a time, so they stay the same length as their mate. This one is for a male, so the heel will be another four inches from here.
I’ve been working on the drawings but I’m not done yet. And I know more story but both can wait until tomorrow.
Meanwhile, two more socks are toed.
And I cut my hair, closer to the length of my Bitmoji.
If I hadn’t been working on these:
I might have finished my Inktober drawing and story. Thank goodness for Stream to get a blog published today. And putting off for later what could have been done yesterday and this morning.
Oh, and then. If only I could leave a loom open rather than immediately setting up the next pair of socks, I would have had more writing time. But gifts want to be given.
So I’d have a horse ranch if wishes…
