One Crazy Fiber Lady

Stranded

OMG. ¬†It is COOOOOOLLLLLDDDD outside. ¬†Heck, it isn’t overly warm today in the office, either that or I’m still frozen from the commute. ¬†Brrr. ¬†I don’t think this winter is ever going to end. ¬†The thermometer in my car read 14F when I took the kids to school. ¬† That’s way way below my 80F comfort level ;)

Enough bitching about this endless winter, I’m still constantly amazed at how much I can get done if I actually concentrate on a project.

This is my Selbu Modern as it stands now. ¬†I took this picture on the ferry this morning. ¬†I might not have mentioned this, but I’m knitting it in Koigu. ¬†Yum. ¬†The band was on US0 and the rest has been on US2 16″ addi’s. ¬†It has progressed far enough that I was able to try the band on the noggin without all the stitches falling off the needles last night. ¬†A little tighter than I’d like but I think it should block out fine. ¬†

I had to put it aside last night during the ride home. ¬†Yesterday must have been overly stressful as I didn’t have enough brain cells left to concentrate on two color stranding. ¬†I played The Sims on my netbook instead. ¬†That is why I carry multiple things to do. ¬†I shouldn’t be bored during my commute ;)

I’m sort of hopeful that I can get this hat finished tonight at SnB. ¬†I’m only a couple of rounds shy of the decrease so it is possible. ¬†I tucked my size 2 DPNs in my bag just in case. ¬†

Craft on!
