projects

Finished the front of the Rebecca Fisherman’s Rib top. Blocked the back last night, will do the front tonight. Saturday night, I sewed one side and underarm seam on the Odessa sweater. It only took me two and a half hours. :) I watched two episodes of Trading Spaces for two of those hours.

I got all of my needles, yarn, patterns and projects entered into NeedleTrax this weekend! I received it on Friday and spent a good part of the weekend entering things. I figured, “oh, I’ll just put in yarn that I currently have” but when I went in to put all of my projects from August 2000 to now, I had to put in all of the older yarn. Thank goodness for my knitting journal. I realized that I have 9 projects in the works right now – 3 of them are socks. With the Fisherman’s top almost finished and the Odessa sweater that would take me down to 7 projects. I’ve been feeling a bit overwhelmed by all of my projects, like which one do I work on and just feeling like I’m buried in projects.

I’m at work right now. I caught the train this morning and now I’m really tired. I knitted on the clouds blanket this morning and only got about 5 rows done, 5 rows on that blanket is a fair amount for the time I was in transit. I also brought the Brittany jumper to work on at lunch and on my way home if I don’t want to work on the blanket. I have too many ends and too many bobbins hanging off the blanket right now. It took me a while to untangle everything this morning, maybe I need to put two in a plastic bag together and then just have pairs in the little bags. I wonder if that would help?
I probably should get some work done today. I’m really wanting a nap right now.
