My goal is to get to the armhole shaping by the end of today. I got a pretty good chunk done on the back yesterday. Nothing like waiting at the doctor's office or for Xrays! (still no work yet on if the thumb is broken and if the Xrays are inconclusive, he's off to get an MRI).
That's basically all I did yesterday. Good thing I love doing moss stitch. Actually, it's perfect TV watching knitting. I don't have to watch what I'm doing, no pattern to keep track of just knit/purl away.
I'm amazed when I sit in doctor's office how many people just sit there. Staring into space. Looking bored. Don't they know that they'll be sitting there? It's called a waiting room for a reason. I'm the only one in the office prepared. I brought knitting. I got a lot of knitting done.
So I'm still on track for finishing the vest before Christmas... with 5 days to go, no problem! Then onto the Selfish Challenge KAL!!! Woo-hoo. What shall I make for myself? Suggestions always welcomed (but not necessarily followed).
Yes,re: waiting rooms. I think one main reason I knit is because I can't sit around boooored, esp. in a dr's office with only 3 year old copies of Fly Fisherman to read. I've always brought my own reading material and knitting along. You can get a lot of rows done at all those places where you have nothing to do but wait.
ReplyDeleteI'm was surprised by how many people were just sitting there (at least I provided some entertainment). Oh and my doctor's office seems to lean more towards 3 year old auto mags... not one knitting magazine in the bunch. Hrumph.
