I'm not feeling so great today, thank goodness it's a slower day. I was supposed to have a volunteer meeting today, but I let them know I won't be able to come (I don't think running to the bathroom every few minutes would make me that productive).
On the plus side, feeling like crap means I'll just stay home and knit today.
But even over the last few days, I've been productive with my knitting.
1) The Christmas Mittens are a wonderfully simple pattern, and I got mitten number one finished on the bus and during a volunteer photo shoot. (I did, I found, have to go up to 3.5 mm needles for the right tension, but that's ok.)
I've since added the thumb, sewn in the ends, and started in on mitten two. (And one of the complete non-knitters at my volunteering asked me in surprise if I was knitting with the tapestry needle while I was sewing in ends at the photo shoot. I laughed and explained that 'no, this is just for sewing it together. She told me that made a lot more sense, and we both laughed.)
Also, the Fall Lake Slippers are finally done! The tubular cast-off takes a while, but it's worth it for the stretchy edge.
No new picture there, since I gave the second one to my roommate pretty much the moment it was done. But I think you folks can get the idea.
That's it for the moment, more to come when I feel better.
