Scanning the blogs, there's some sentiment that there's not much knitting happening. Time to refocus. Easy enough, I had a dental appointment requiring some prophylactic stress treatment.
It's not that I don't like my dentist, we have a 25 year relationship and he's an admired professional. Believe it or not I used to look forward to my dental visits, a chance to kick back in a semi quiet atmosphere away from my reality of social service work and my family of three little ones. Although pleased with the ease of their work, his staff agreed I was one sick puppy.
Kids grown up, work devolved from hair raising direct service to the role of full time in-office professional money begger, the dental visit doesn't have the pull for me that it used to. Now, while lying back in the chair, between a mouthful of conflicting tickle and prick sensations, my eyes are closed and I'm thinking of knitting. It's the project above, another Free and Easy Pie Wedge Shawl. In laceweight, they can be scrunched into lightweight scarves. This one is made of hand painted semi solid Zephyr. It's difficult to find hand painted semi solid laceweights, especially in tones of brown, so if you're interested, check out Beyond Basic Knits.
It's back to the dentist this afternoon. I think I'll knit a few more rows.
