#yearofmaking
Sounds simple enough, but I've been pretty tired these last few weeks. My multi-tasking magical abilities seem to have disappeared. I used to be able to watch tv and knit and read and email. Nope. Must focus all energy on one thing. Ugh. Really hoping this is just a side effect. I've been making an effort though to take a few minutes for making, even if initially I'm not feeling up to it. Just need to get going, if that makes sense. It seems to be helping.



I feel like the slowest knitter in the world right now. But a few rows each night....slowly but surely.
I was definitely silly to think I'd get any knitting done the other night when I was babysitting this sweet pea.

Isn't she the sweetest?!?!

My sister said her husband teased that they left her with me just a few hours and she already had her Notre Dame bib on. I clarified that that was the second bib I put on her. The my auntie thinks I'm cute bib was spit up on first :)
And now the end of the holiday season. Monday is looming. Back to work I go. Kind of nice that we can ease into that tonight with the premiere of Downton Abbey!

My mom picked up this tea a few weeks ago for me at Cost Plus World Market. The yarn I picked up from the lovely Amy at Canon Hand Dyes.

Fall at Downton Abbey. Isn't it grand? It'll be waiting for me for when my knitting mojo returns!
I hope you've eased into the new year and it is going well so far. Any making on your end? I'd love to hear.
Here's to a good week ahead for us!
Happy Knitting!
