Sometimes the knitting gods smile down on you and yesterday they were smiling at me. It was Cary Grant day on TCM and it was raining. Could you ask for a better day to do nothing but sit and knit?
I started off in the morning with a pot of tea and Topper. I managed to get three more stripes on the two at a time Felici socks.
I switched over to the Opal sock while I was watching Bringing Up Baby. I turned the heel and started down the foot.
By the time they were showing Arsenic and Old Lace I had once again turned a heel and had started down another foot. This time on my reel sock. I don't have a lot to show for my day but it was a very pleasant one. For almost 12 hours there was no pandemic, no social unrest, no divisive politics. It was just me, my needles and one very, very charming gentleman.
I love, love, love it! The socks are all wonderful and I especially like the Felici yarn.
ReplyDeleteDo you know, I don't think I've ever seen a Cary Grant movie. I think I'm the only woman of a certain age who can make that claim. I'll have to change that someday.
I'm glad you had a good day Debra. You needed it.
Blessings,
Betsy
