Seriously, the other night I was so tired I was nodding off while still knitting my handspun scarf.
It's been frogged twice since the picture I took the other day on my 5mm needle attempt. I think now at 20 stitches on 8mm needles, it's going to work out, if only as a short scarf:

Another yay: how I'm getting through the suspense while I wait for February 1 and the first packet from the Biscotte club.

I'm practicing my customized toe-up design, and I'd intended to put a pattern onto the foot, but then it occurred to me: why gild the lily? Or in this case the bright multi stripings. Love how the yarn keeps going back to green, don't you?
Simple knitting: when life is busy, there just isn't anything finer.
(unless you count eating really amazing chocolate ice cream while somebody else cleans the bathroom.)
