Yarn Along - reverse progress.

Yes this is last week's picture as I am only three or four rows further.
I am definitely having one of those weeks.  I found that I missed a strand in the blanket, I am working two strands at once, so the up side is I did not drop a stitch. I had to rip back most of the green so my blanket looks much the same this week as last!  In reading I finished Just Run By Chris Cussler this morning, it was enjoyable with a good sense of how humans react to bad situations if a little predictable.

The antibiotic the doctor put me on knocked me out last night within an hour of taking it so I put off the dose this morning to see the dentist.  Hopefully, I am not asleep on the couch under my daughters (hubby works from home) in a few minutes.

Happy knitting.  Linking up with Ginny and the Yarn Along.

  2. Hope you are feeling better soon. And the blanket is looking lovely, even though you had to undo so much.

    1. Thanks! I go back and forth about liking this blanket, it is very soft and cozy and in some lights looks shimmery and pretty and in others it looks odd. Hopefully, Stacy (the mom who it is going to) will have the right kind of light.

    After some good rest hopefully you can tackle more of the blanket.

    1. Thanks, I feel like the antibiotic is already starting to work, so we'll see. I have until the 28th to get this done.

  4. Sorry to hear you've been sick and had to rip back. What a double whammy! I've been sick the last couple of days, too, and it's driving me crazy that I'm at home all day but don't have the energy to knit.

    1. Thanks! I am glad I noticed it too. I wouldn't want a baby to catch a finger or toe in a loose loop.

  6. Alisa,
    It is not and it was nerve wracking trying to do it on the living room floor when I suddenly realized two little girls were not sleeping and if I did not hurry I would have cuddly 'help'.

  8. Am glad the antibiotics are working. I would find the blanket a thought disctaction from being poorly - although it still wouldn't stop me feeling miffed about having to rip my knitting!
