I fear I am crippled.
Due to mass amounts of snow, there was much shoveling Monday which did not do anything to help the pulled muscle in my shoulder from last week. This hindered large amounts of knitting but I wasn't in the mood to do anything important anyway. I did not end up going to the movies either - the thought of shoveling my car out for a third time was really quite unbearable. I started a February Baby Sweater from the Knitting Almanac by Elizabeth Zimmermann for a little girl one of my friends expects to arrive in late January/early February. I'm using a lovely shade of Robin's egg blue from Blue Sky Cotton (the expectant mother is allergic to wool) that I just happened to have in my stash. (See, to have a stash is a good thing.) I have finished the yoke and arms, now the body should be quick to finish. I LOVE this pattern. If anyone has calculated for an adult version (save me from the math. PLEASE.) I would love to get ahold of the numbers and knit one for myself.
