Spring hit, the rushing began...the pace has picked up. there are more events, fairs, volunteering, rehearsals, less empty pages in the diary, and less knitting!
Life seems to be about a swinging from rushing to pausing (or gasping?).
Something must be done about this periodic quickening... this November malaise...knitting seemed the antidote...but it's being pushed out by the packed agenda of a family of five.
That said: I finally finished my "hitch"jumper/sweater! hooray for that! (ravelled
here)
It feels good to finish something, and it's a stunner in the
Rowan Felted Tweed.
and while I dither about between projects, I have some finishing of socks underway...
oh, and on a hot afternoon, I picked up the girls after school and we all five, yes the whole family, drove in peak hour traffic across town to the bay for a first of the season swim and a fish'n'chip dinner on the beach!! worth the fumes, I can tell ya!
and just because, I'm joining the
Yarn Along with Ginny, though I haven't read much at all except of course, bedtime stories! The favourite is
"Charley's First Night" by Amy Hest and illustrated by Helen Oxenbury (I love her work); about a child and a new puppy.
