Wearing my alpaca sweater because it’s freezing (note- props on that do not go to me, but to some talented indigenous woman somewhere in the Andes)
Keeping my cabeza warm with freshly finished hat
Working on the gap-tastic cowl

It’s too tedious and I’ve got a chronic case of Second Sock Syndrome
Also I just can’t stand the idea of investing so much time into a pair of socks….only to put them on someone’s FEET. It’s funny- because I think that’s what sock knitters LOVE about making socks- but it just seems like such a terrible idea to me.
