It's been awhile...

I’ve been knitting. Sort of. There’s this whole vicious cycle thing going. The boys are out of school so the house is a disaster. But it’s impossible to clean because the boys are out of school. But I feel guilty for not cleaning. So I don’t think I should knit. But even if I felt like it, the boys are out of school, so I can’t really just sit down. Because then the house would hit that mess level where you can’t find any unders.

For your amusement… Broken lantern moon needles. The boogers. So cozy is stalled.

The puffy lump aka Icky the Icarus. I’ve only done just two repeats of the five needed for the straight section. If you look above, you can see the true colors of the cozy.

But I’ve been really distracted by this…. This has my first Intarsia attempt with the star. The bad news is the instructions suck a$$ and so I’m kind of not sure whether or not I could continue.

So these are my frustrating adventures in knitting. How’s things in your little corner of the world?
