Halloween has come and gone. November is in full swing here in New York, with windy and cool weather creeping in. Besides the weather, Daylight Savings Time will make our days darker and drearier than necessary. I’m so not interested in winter.
What’s great about this season? Knitting happens a lot.
As you can see I’m knitting something new. New colorful yarns are delicious. Knitting with them is a feast for the eyes and fingers. Yes, delicious.
I’m not so sure about the pattern I chose to knit though. There’s some new things I need to learn how to do so I can continue. Counting stitches gives me a headache, yarn overs can slip off my needles if I’m not careful, and the stitches on the stitch holders with the provisional cast-ons keep getting in my way.
Until I get past a certain point in this piece of knitting, there will be no painting fun happening. Or any other fun around here.
This is serious business. Ahem.
