Friday Night Knitting
My local yarn shop is starting up a Friday Night Knitting night and tonight is the first one. I'm very excited. It's going to be great to get out of the house, and it's going to be extra-great to have an opportunity to sit down and really get some knitting done. All of my projects have fallen by the wayside since early last Fall. I can't decide what to bring, the sushi toilet roll cover or Salina. It would be nice to get the sushi cover done because what knitter doesn't get a rush of satisfaction over finishing a project. Plus, it doesn't require lots of my attention so I can focus on chatting. On the other hand, I've been working on Salina forever and it would be nice to get back into it. I think I'm at the point of starting the second lapel, which would require staring at my notes and the pattern to figure out what I have to do, which leads to having to keep track of where I am as I'm going. Not the hardest thing in the world, but it would probably detract from the chatting aspect of the evening. Probably I'll throw both in my extra-large knitting bag and decide when I get there.
I asked Libby if I could bring anything for snacks. She said she was trying to go as healthy as possible. I'm not kidding when I say that threw me for a total loop. It took me five days to come up with something remotely healthy (hummus and pita chips). I'm a cookies and cakes kind of girl.
