People are always wondering what people who don't have children do with their time. Well, let me tell you. We spend FIVE HOURS, that's right, five, unraveling a stubborn ball of yarn that refuses to unknot itself. It was innocently bound up as a hank and when I gently tried to use my ball winder, it become a veritable Medusa's nest....My back still hurts....Did I mention it was sock yarn? Blast!
The other fun new project I am starting is the other pillow (see post below) to go with the one I knitted for the couch at my book club's store. I cut and pasted their logo into a photo program and then turned it into a chart (with the help of my computer genius husband.) It may sound easy-and that's what I told him-but it took us an hour to do it together. I am still going to have to finagle some of the pattern to get it to look just right.
So I don't have any pictures to post just yet-I haven't been able to get my husband's new ski mask on him. Hello? I asked him if 13 degree weather is not cold enough to wear it, what is? If he doesn't wear it tomorrow-I am SO over January-I know he really just doesn't like it but doesn't want to hurt my feelings. (How many times can you say doesn't in one sentence?) If that is the case, I will reclaim the yarn, i.e. frog, because the "extra" yarn I found was really for the second pillow I am making. Oops!
