Sometimes I honestly feel like I could knit for days on end with no break. I don't know if it's because I get obsessive about things or because I'm so impatient for the final product, but sweater, I. Can't. Quit. You. All morning long I watched documentaries (September Issue!) and began knitting the test for a Perenboom sweater. I was so deliriously happy. Knit, purl, knit, purl, pet the kitties, drink some espresso from my amazing new Kourig knock-off, knit, purl, knit, purl. I've also been working on knitting up a prototype for some yoga socks/leglets. They came out a little too big (man, oh man does wool stretch) and I'm not too pleased with the pattern. Time to consult my knitting pattern bible and pick a new combo! Taniel has off today, so as soon as she wakes up, I plan on convincing her to do yoga with me. She's the only person I know who hates downward dog more than any other pose. Then maybe we can take a stroll down past the silent movie theatre on Fairfax and do some vintage shopping/cafe eating! I like this day already.
*the artwork on my door was done by my late grandmother who was quite the provocative artist in her time. She had a million stories - one in particular about how she got tipped a quarter under a full glass at her soda shoppe by a would-be suitor - and a talented mind and hand. Not to mention she was quite the looker with a full head of ginger curls*
