I have no knitting photo's to show. I am on row 26 of the Swarm section of my Bee Fields Stole which looks just like the rows I showed last week so I won't bore you.
Instead I am going to blog about the fact that I think Knitting has taken too much of my free time. I haven't read a book since the last Harry Potter came out almost a year ago. I don't have a lot of free time but I have devoted all of it to knitting.
Well - I suddenly became intrigued by this. I'm thinking that if it is more convenient to buy and move books around maybe it will result in my reading more. I do miss reading. So - I spent part of today (I took a day of vacation) to read 60% of The Appeal by Grisham. Felt good. I need more balance in my life.
I'm not going to stop knitting. In fact - I also bought a pair of these this week. I found them on Ravelry to show off handknitted socks. I went up a half size and they are so neat!
FYI - I did seam up my Antique Lace vest. Love it. I will post a photo (I took one this AM for my family but didn't think it was suitable for my blog.. hah!)
Have a good week!

- I have been knitting for 40 years but I'm always trying new things. My latest projects are fair isle and nordic sweaters. I also love to knit lace. My days are busy working as a software developer at Qwest, keeping up with my two manic border collies which I rescued, and maintaining my home.

I love the idea of a little pad to travel around with and read anywhere I want! Another little gadget inspired by Star Trek (I think LOL!).
I just received it today and I discovered that I can email to it. So I sent it one of my knitting patterns. The resolution isn't as good as with the book I downloaded but it will be wonderful for traveling.
