Minor knitting stuff
No school today, so it’s me and the Boo. Hubby went to work late, since he had to go to the doctor again. His bandage is much smaller, so his finger is less protected, and apparently he banged the bejeebers out of it on the steering wheel this morning.
Worked on the doll some more. The button to the right is the button that my daughter chose as a belly button. I actually stayed up rather late working on this, because I decided the head was way too flat on the top, probably because I revised the pattern and… uh… apparently viewed the neck portion as the crown portion and therefore closed it off. Honestly, the pattern wasn’t very clear on what was what. Anyway, since Emily had already seen the head fully knitted, I decided I’d rather stay up late re-knitting it than have her come in in the morning to an unravelled head. I paid for that decision this morning, when my husband couldn’t find his antibiotics and got me up earlier than I would have liked to see if I’d done anything with them. We won’t go into the antics that ensued, but suffice to say that I’d just dug through the outside garbage when he discovered that they were in his jacket pocket. It’s funnier now than it was through my sleep haze.
I’ve been working on the second sock on and off. It’s been so cold I’ve thought of putting it aside to work on gloves instead. Somewhere, I managed to lose another #1 DPN. Hopefully no one will find it by sitting on it. Ouch.
Otherwise, it’s been a slow day. Ran out of ink and paper, had to run to Office Depot for more, as I’ve got more kits to go out and I’m guessing it would be good to, you know, include a pattern. We’re going to speech therapy later today, so we’ll hit the post office before that.
Hats up next for: TX, IA, and WA.
Definitely early to sleep for me tonight.
