knitting under pressure
i will never win any awards for speed knitting, so, lilly chin you can stop watching your back, ROFLMAO!
but, gimme a few sticks and some string, i can make a nifty, functional garment, that also may or may not be attractive.
knitting with a deadline is actually slowing me down i think. the ‘pressure’ is causing me to focus on the outcome rather than getting zen with it. i’ve never had a knit deadline, well besides the holiday gifts, but anyone who is worthy enough to get something i knit, knows me well enough to realize that they won’t be getting it “on time” anyhow.
the less i focus on the outcome, which is you know, these being published, the better off i am.
onto the craft!
i took this yarn
you might remember it from way back yonder and have started to turn it into
~socks~
when i slow down enough, i’m enjoying the color play.

i had grand plans of updating pippi this week, but the best laid plans, and all of that.
it is just so dang humid out, nothing is drying, so, nothing will get photographed anytime soon.
speaking of the dreaded weather, it is back to the too hot to breathe. it really isn’t the heat, it is the humidity.
in case you were wondering, this is, apparently what humidity and deadlines make me look like
now, back to my socks, i’m getting ready to start the heel.
wish me luck on avoiding ‘SSS’
