Thanks to everyone for their mojo wishes yesterday. Apparently, the trick was to pick up something else and work on that for a while. I have to say, I am enjoying knitting Ballerina again, especially since progress can be seen:
Again, I took this picture alongside the East River after getting off the ferry.  Its safe to assume that any picture of knitting with sunshine included was taken on the way to work.  This bench should be the tip off that it was near the ferry 
¬† As you can see, I’ve made it through the first solid section on the sleeve and am into the stripes.¬† There will be 17 white and blue stripes before moving back to the solid blue and tapering the sleeve down for the other side.¬† I found help in approaching this sweater to make it perhaps a tad easier.¬† Excellent posts over here.¬† I used a provisional cast on as they did so that I can three needle bind off the sleeves and not have any sewing to do.¬† We all know how I hates sewing, hand quilting notwithstanding.¬† Never said I was consistent Anyway.. this makes the same project two days running.¬† Woot.
Last night I spent with my XM Radio and my Ladybug.¬† Have I mentioned that I love my bug?¬† Yes?¬† All righty then.¬† I’m about an arm’s length of roving from finishing the first 4oz of the Ultraviolet.¬† Still in love with it.¬† Enjoyed it mightily while listening to the Sox game, even if they did lose.¬† Boo.¬† It was close at the end!¬† Have to say, I’m liking this Jason Bay feller and MLB08 The Show has updated the roster to reflect his addition.¬† Woot.¬† (Oh yeah, I played a little baseball on the PS3 last night before settling in at the wheel)
Pretty no?  I should finish up this first bobbin tonight and move onto the second.
That’s about it for today.¬† I need to go unit test some of my code prior to a status meeting and our pre-release build this afternoon.
Craft on!
