WiP Wednesday

I am a complete failure as a hermit. Seriously. I‘d pay to just hide in my weaving room and ignore the world, but I couldn’t do it guilt-free.

The Color Affection for Sairy’s Mommy has been finished and sent on its way, and I’ve chipped away at my Swirl a little bit, but there’s no real progress, so no new picture.

 I’ve been doing a little bit of knitting. I volunteered to knit two cowls for a group on Ravelry. I started (and finished) the first one over the weekend.

It’s a Sherbrooke Cowl, which I’ve made once before. It needs a soak and some end-weaving, then it’ll get the full finished project treatment. Cowl #2 was started last night.

It’s a Darkside Cowl, and I’m one repeat in.

Stash yarn for both of these, which is awesome. And they’re quick. Yay!

The weaving is for a Christmas gift, so no pictures. Speaking of which, I’d better get back to work!

I have hermit tendencies some days. I think that's because I spend so much of my work days talking to people (social work will do that to you). On weekends, sometimes I just want to hibernate and be left alone. I don't think it's unreasonable at all.

I made my first cowl last winter and decided I like them so I'm going to make another one. My next thing is to try to make a pair of fingerless mitts for me. I've made them for other people but I always thought they looked useless but people keep telling me how wonderful they are.
