It's a been one of those odd weeks- I feel like I'm constantly working, yet nothing really seems to be getting done. Do you have those kind of days/weeks? I think there's just so much else going on around here that the work is happening in such odd increments that things don't get done in a lump sum, but instead in little spurts. It reminds me of having a baby around- when NOTHING seems to be getting done around the house, but you're constantly left exhausted and wondering "where did all the fricken time go?"
Add to that the snow, which while beautiful, certainly does make a mess of things. But it makes for good knitting weather. I'm still knitting on the Creekbed Scarf, and just like me week, it seems to not be making much progress. It's knit in one long 441 stitch row, so even if I knit for an hour, I really just get two rows out of it. So I have about two inches to show for it and hope that sometime by spring I'll actually be able to wear it. Ha!
But I do have some lovely yarn to share with you next week- Dream in Color, news from Opal, Lorna's Laces (with something special to share), and Unique Sheep. Yum.
How was your week?
Like yours far too busy with far too little accomplished. Still have one size 6 sweater to knit, 2 pairs of socks and 1 shawl to finish before Christmas. That doesn't include the baking, wrapping and decorating! I always wonder why I think I'm superwoman every year at this time!

I decided that with two weeks to go, the projects that aren't even started, I'm not going to try for. I'll make them, but the recipients will just get a little surprise in January, or February, or March......spread the Christmas goodness all over the year!

This year I am making time for me..no Christmas knitting that isn't already finished and gone.
The week has not been good, but I am blaming the Full Moon!

Knit, knit knit. So many projects and so little time. Seems like everyone I know is having a baby too. I am finishing up my 4th in a flight of 5 baby blankets in the last 5 weeks. My thumbs feel like lead.
