Knitterly chit chat...

 

Happy Sunday!

 

Natural Fibre Arts Merino Superwash Sock Tweed in the color Natural.

I am almost back on track for blog posts, today's is just a little later on Sunday.:) I'll get there soon. Thank you all for your kind comments about my move. Yes, moving is stressful and just plain exhausting, right? I never would have thought that I would be too stressed to knit, but that was the case. But thankfully, I am getting back on the Zen train of knitting. 

 

 

Now, I have to say I may have been more productive with my knitting if my new "roommate" would let me get a stitch in more often.  This little guy's name is Maxx and he belongs to my mom and stepfather. Since I am staying with them for a bit, it would seem that Maxx has taken me on as one of his people. I am never without him by my side...never. :) In the picture above, it would seem that it is the perfectly opportunity to knit, right? What you can't see is that he is laying on my sock WIP and is in full snore mode.

So other than some simple vanilla socks, nothing too exciting happening on the needles. I am hoping to rectify that very soon. I am thinking I want to cast on a fun hat or something along those lines. How is your knitting going?

I have been really enjoying watching what I call "Maker" videos. Sometimes they have nothing to do with knitting or yarn, but creating in other mediums. I posted this video many years ago, but recently watched it again and was immediately inspired.   Enjoy and have the best day today!

 

 

XO,

I am sure you and Maxx will soon figure a way to be together while you knit. When my daughter’s dog visit we have to figure things out with snuggles and knitting. It’s slower but companionable. Enjoy

When we were in the middle of all those moves (3 in 2 years), I knit A LOT. The problem was . . . it was crappy knitting and most of the time I frogged it all back out.

Maxx looks like such a sweet dog, but yes .... pets really slow down the production rate. LOL

Smiled at how Max has adopted you.

I love the dogs celtic collar. How lovely to live with family for a bit. I'd love that here sometime. Just to know I'm helping and having the people I love most in theworld near me....that's heaven on earth

Sleeping Maxx is adorable but hopefully you can train him to not sleep on the knitting :) i agree that watching maker videos is a wonderful way to relax...I gave in & bought a subscription to creative bug when they had a special rate sale and have been watching videos on all sorts of crafts like English Paper Piecing and creative lettering before going to sleep.
