. . . knitting on the side
I have not written because two rows from finishing something went wrong.
Terribly wrong.
Two rows from finishing.
I am going to try and fix it.
Hi.
I went for my 11th chiro visit today. I still feel like an ostrich sat on my neck and then like tried to find a comfy spot and did a wiggle.
Tomorrow should be better.
have a fabulous weekend if you don't hear from me.
The pink shawl ate me. But I brought the needles to start my River just incase.
I am up to 349 stitches across.
The shawl is getting heavy and I had to move it onto 14 knitting needles.
I like single point needles I am just wired like that.
The circular ones just don't have enough to hold onto when I get going. The other thing I have with circles is that unless I am knitting a circle I have to keep stopping and pushing the fabric closer to the end of the needle with single points I seem to be able to do that without stopping.
so close.

This is my 201 st post.
Question.
Do you ever read a post and want to comment but really have nothing to say but you have so much to say. Then you wonder if what you have so say is really worth writing a comment about. So then you start to write the comment then you erase it than start again and then finally just forget the whole thing?
I do this a lot.... Like a lot a lot.
So I started to write lots of comments today but then was like I would ruining a perfectly good conversation if I added my couple of lines and stopped.
I am linking myself to a hermit crab without pinchers.

Pink shawl knitting is still happening but slowly I am closing in on binding off. If it is slow tonight there will be blocking tomorrow.
155 Rows finito I have only Forty some more.
But Then I am going to start River. Thanks to my SP.
But I get knitting.
: )
It is Sweater weather. Possibility of Rain. A warm cup of tea and a shawl to knit on.
All I need is Sonny to snuggle with.
Neck
I am still not feeling like me. Basically I am a pain in ones sitting area. However I am having pain in my neck which is what I attribute my new found cranky, irritated, and down right bitchyness.
I apologize to all who have come into contact with me.
But some have deserved the stare of duhhhhhh. The lady who kept asking me questions then not waiting for me to answer before her next question then getting mad at me. Lady you did not help me and pause between questions. You don't even have to stop talking just take a breath.
She did have on these amazing earrings though. Great twisted metal with etching in them. Fabulous.
I know I still owe posts but you don't want me to make another list so you get basic writing skills with no pictures. Sorry. This is a knitting blog so with out further to do I have knitting content.
Danielle's version of knitting therapy...
I have knit almost two pairs of socks. They are tres cute. One only needs a toe and about 12 rounds. I made it with my own stripy yarn. I actually got the measurements right to get strips. Granted they are funky colors but still cool. The other pair is the failed striping yarn in my yucky weird color way. They almost strip. I know pictures would help but the camera is not at my desk at the moment.
Mystery shawl is at clue number 4. I am liking it so far its a little jumble pattern wise but not in a bad way. I have enjoyed seeing how the pieces fall together to create a different piece. I look forward to the blocking.
I tried spinning corn fiber. Erm I have nothing good to say about my experience. Maybe I just got bad corn. Its like very dry and very inelastic. I will try some on my spindle otherwise it will have to go to a different home.
I started the Katrina Rib pattern but I think I need to frog. It does not look clean on my increases which will bug me.
Sly says hi to Donni.
I am avoiding the sad on my blog today.
and avoiding SP5, Backtack, and RAOK.
I love them all but they need devoted attention and I only have enough attention to compile lists.
