It's 9:30pm and I'm at work. There is a football game on tonight and I have to be here. I really don't understand football. Normally, I can go when I finish everything I needed to do...which should have been hours ago. But I'm waiting for the family. They're here at the game. So I'm sitting in my office knitting.
I'm knitting Kiri again. I made a Kiri shawl last year and gave it away to a friend who ran off to get married in Germany. It was hard to part with but the look on her face was worth it.
It was a toss up between the Flower Basket and the Kiri. I still have 2 Flower basket shawl waiting to be blocked. Do you see a trend here? Not much gets past the blocking stage of finishing.
I think at some point, I must have planned on making a few more Kiri shawl. Apparently, all in the same colour...Dewberry...because I found another bag of Kidsilk Haze in Dewberry. Good thing I like that colour.
Thankful for:
1. game is almost over.
2. 3 hours of quiet knitting time with no one to bother me.
3. Sushi.
Ugh! Have you tried blocking wires? Those are supposed to make blocking super easy quick. I'm too cheap to buy them, but I'm sure there is some waterproof wire in the hardware store that would work.
ReplyDeleteAnother thing...I've been told that fabric office walls are great for blocking. I'm just saying...
