Dropped needles
Sára is ill, and I’m exhausted. She had high fever for a few days, and poor thing was quite miserable. Now she is better, but still can’t breath properly because of her full nose. I feel sorry for her, and I can’t sleep either. Today I was home with her, (my mother was looking after her this week) and the plan was that I will do some cleaning and knitting, and we go out for a stroll with the dog. Nothing of the above. I was sleeping all day long. Good job she was fine watching cartoons. I ordered some lunch, and that was it.
We were going out for the playground around 4 pm. Despite all of these sleeping, I still don’t feel strong enough to do anything. I hope I will not catch Sára’s disease. Instead of knitting, I’m trying to sort out some tangled yarn in my basket. Not too much success on this…. I still have a great big knot of yarn. I think this will be good for stuffing some amigurumi dolls in the future.
Finally, I have started the co-workers vest. It is going to be fast and easy, I just skipped it because I was interested in so many other things in the last few weeks.
If I will have some time at the computer, I’m intended to search the history of knitting a little. I’d love to see old knitted fabrics, and old techniques. Amazing, how old this craft is!
No wonder we can create so beautiful, sophisticated, intrigued patterns.
