A Fairly Good Day

 I managed to sprain my ankle yesterday.  Please don’t ask me how I did it.  I honestly don’t remember.  The good thing about the whole thing is that I managed to get my foot wrapped up all by myself.  This is the first time in years that I have been able to do that.  

I also managed to shop for and make dinner tonight. This is the second time this week.  We will eat the leftovers tomorrow night.  

Then the major accomplishment for the day was doing a Russian join on fingering weight linen yarn.  Even if I have to say so myself. The join came out fairly smooth and flat.  Once knit in I personally don’t think anyone will notice it especially from 5 feet away.

Feeling Better

I am feeling better tonight. I did not sleep well last night,but got caught up on sleep today.  I am hoping for a higher energy day tomorrow.

On the knitting front I finished the brim on hat number 10 and accomplished the increase row plus 1/2 of an inch.  I am getting better at the Russian join in knitting. It is now to the point that I can not see it once the join is knitted in.

It time to turn the music on and go to sleep.
