I started knitting again on the MK Level 1 pieces again. I had a long hiatus. Christmas gifts, and other things.

I am really excited about starting again. I had stopped just as I was getting to Swatch # 8 ssk decreases. I think my decreases tend to get stretched. But I’m going to try real hard to keep it together. I have a doc appointment today and I’m going to knit a bit in the office there. So hard to find time when you’re working through the day.

I haven’t bought any new knitting books lately and I’m so proud of myself. I mean, how many how-to books does a gal need anyway? But I’ve been eyeing the write-ups on the new book coming out about one skein projects…The only thing is, I already have patterns for a lot of those projects. They’re probably already one skein. I just get sucked in with all the juicy pics. Got to work on keeping money in my pocket!

Thinking of giving up my rings. So glad they were successful. But I just can’t keep up what with the job and the family and all. It’s just too much for me at the moment. And there are other things I’d like to give my time to right now. My daughter is already nearing eight months and I’m feeling like I missed so much of it at work. I need to kick back and have no other obligations for a bit but them. Hope everyone understands.

I knit myself a scarf. Comfort knitting. I always knit the same scarf though! K4, P4. What’s up with that? Creature of habit I guess.

Anyway, back to the MKL1 swatches. Hopefully, I'll have enough steam to get through the rest of the swatches within the next two months. One row down...

Happy knitting!
