End of Day

It's nice to end a day like this. A nice fire, feet up, knitting meditatively. An added bonus was that Will was here, so there was good conversation.

We had a gang in today for the Packers/Bears game. The Olsens and the Heitmans came, and the boys all watched football and the girls all chatted. Tons of food. Once again, I was too carried away to actually remember to take pictures DURING the gathering.

This is the Wallaby sweater in the picture. Things are going along well. I got the pocket fused into the body and now I'm just doing row after mindless row of stockinette, working my way up to the armholes. This is Black Water Abbey yarn, color Lichen. It's a neutral for sure, but it's heathery, with every color of the rainbow mixed in. I'm liking.

I also took a big step and tackled a project from the procrastination pile. It's a tartan wool jumper, with way too much fullness in the skirt. The plan is to take it apart, remove some fabric from the skirt, and put it all back together again. And it's now all apart. I count that as progress.

Is it Monday already? Arrrrgh.
