Wow, I haven't updated this page in a long time. Sorry to keep you waiting. It's not as though I haven't done anything in the last couple of weeks, but it has been the same few things over and over again. The show that I am working on closes on the 22nd, and then I am off to the east coast. The Rowan 4-ply that I bought on ebay arrived today. It is not the color that I expected, but more of a burnt orange. Like a 70s kitchen, minus the avocado tupperware. Still, it is very nice yarn in search of a project. I took the peach boucle sock out of my wip limbo drawer. It is about an inch away from the toe decreases. Began a new pair of socks for my grandfather and outsmarted myself in setting in a contrasting color heel. My mother tells me that I must knit short rows in order to avoid carrying the heel color across the instep. I dread short rows.
I got a new cell phone, which is a fabulous little toy that I don't really understand. That is to say, I am still learning how to take advantage of its many functions. Very few of the shortcuts from my last, superannuated phone carry over onto this one, probably because they are different brands. I predict greater thumb dexterity in my near future.
