Less than one week til Thanksgiving. I am very much looking forward to the holiday/family break. What I'm not looking forward to is the cold.
The cold has hit the Northland. That does not make for a happy me.
However, it does put me in the mood for making mittens, hats, scarves, etc.
But I can't make anything because I'm still working on Christmas gifts.
*insert woe face*
One of my friends pointed me towards these fingerless mitts. Susies reading mitts.
They look simple and elegant, which I think will be perfect for the person I'm making them for.
Last night I cast one on. I haven't made much progress on it. I did finish the first fingerless on the other pair I'm making. I still need to put the thumb gusset on it though.
Today I tried tidying up this shelf that yarn and fiber have slowly been accumulating on. MMmmm, it's not looking too much better. But it's a start. I have a grand plan of clearing the clutter and tidying up my itty bitty yarn stash. I don't think it's gonna happen anytime soon though.
So ... yeah ... not a lot of progress this week. I've been feeling a bit run down this week. Since I'm concerned about getting sick during the holidays I've been taking it a bit easy in hopes that my body will fight off whatever has been going around work my son's school.
And on that note, I'm going to go pour myself a glass of orange juice and get ready for the night.
