This week I couldn't stand it any longer. I -whheeeeee!- knit and cast off the button bands for the Cutaway I started almost 2 years ago, it's been near the finish line for a while now. I can't bear to bore you with unblocked unseamed sweater pieces, but I am just rarin' to block & sew.
Earlier today, I uploaded the last two teeny remaining images for my book cover - I know, can you imagine I left out something so critical as the center square of the cover?- to PotterCraft. That felt good. Anti-climactic, but good.
Then I dug into my most unfavorite, much procrastinated upon task, bookkeeping. I need a carrot on the end of the mind-numbing-number- entering-category-checking stick for this one , so I went out and purchased yarn - lovely Araucania Nature Wool Bulky in what I think is the third color from the top on the little card from that link but mine is deeper in its hand-dyedness, with less variegation in tones. I am allowed to cast on a frivolous Juliet sweater for myself as soon as the books are kept. Or....whenver I can rationalize casting on sooner.

Lookit choo, weaving in all those loose ends!
The Juliet is a stunner--I nabbed some Arucania Nature Cotton in Natural for to make a summer top, but now it's October!
Well done you...
Ooh, I remember the whole Cutaway/button debate. Looking forward to seeing more of that. Is it sort of Sunrise-Circle-ish?
It must feel great to be cleaning up those projects and tasks.
I'm at the same place in Moonlight (Rowan) and cursing the day I thought working it as it was written (seamed) I just hate sewing up. Baaa bye sounds like the guy from the Mclaughlin group on sunday mornings. So great to see the book cover!! now lie down and take a nap.
I've been there more times than I'd like to count. I am queen of the court of Procrastination.
