Episode 59: Distractions! They’re All in My Head!

All links to Ravelry are labelled as such. I try to include links to outside websites as much as possible. At this time, I am not including links for purchasing yarns, needles, etc. If I do, they will also be appropriately labelled. As a quick reminder: I am not affiliated with any businesses.

I was able to finish the front of the vest (ravelry link) that I am using for the Master Hand Knitting level 2. The designer of the vest is Jenny Watson (ravelry link). I am also about 60% of the way finished with the back of the vest.

The green marker on the left indicates progress at the time of recording this episode. Clearly, these photos have time traveled from the future.

The Spinning wheel has just been calling my name and I could no longer resist. I was pleasantly surprised by how much Sweetheart DIDN’T CARE about my spinning. The fleece I am working on was purchased at MDSW many years ago, and is a Rambouillet breed fleece. I expect I will continue to find more of it in the yarn room.

Stalled – 15:16

Multiple breakages, like more than seem plausible, has cast suspicion that there may be unwanted lodgers in my yarn. Observations are on-going.

Scenic Route – 25:28

Since Sweetheart considers many things to be food when they are, in fact, not food potatoes are being kept outside. Drastic measures are being taken to ensure their survival here in zone 7b.

Removing the thermal blanket from potato babies. I have to open it up so it can dry from condensation most mornings. I believe I am frowning at the amount of water that was trapped in the blanket over night.
