I never think to update this blog, even though I'm knitting all the time! Right now I'm dedicated to my knitting olympics project Totally Autumn from knitty. It's a cozy, chunky-weight lace throw. I'm knitting it up in Cascade Eco+, one of the few affordable, but still NICE options available. I'm done 50 rows now (the photo was from last night) and am falling a bit behind. I need to be done something like 64 rows this evening to be on track, and that's just not going to happen. If I'm lucky I'll manage 2 or 3 rows on the bus ride home, and that will be it for the day. But I'm going to keep at it! This is a gift for a wedding that isn't until the END of August, so I have a few extra days even if I miss the olympic finish.

My Aleita tank is on hold while I knit this, and there are countless other things adding to my queue each week. I need more knitting time!
