Kinda meh
Posted by limedragon | Filed under knitting
Yesterday’s snowfall was pretty, but hard to clean up. I am really tired today from all the shoveling. Carol E of Giraffe Dreams has good photos of the snowstorm if you want to see.
Now, the recently completed project that was just meh? It’s a rug.

I tried to knit myself some socks. I really tried. All I can offer as evidence is this slightly blurry photo of stockinette.

Omo. Once the knitting on Logan was complete, I was able to pick up this yarn again. I’ve been working steadily on it since.

(Surprise! I have finally rolled out my new blog theme. Simple, but cute, and totally me. Stop by and check it out!)

I started a new sock on Wednesday night.
