Charley Horse

I woke up in the middle of the night with the most wicked charley horse! I had to get out of bed and walk around the house to get it to uncramp. Unfortunately, it is still very tight this morning. Ever had one of those? They are awful. I looked it up on Webmd.com and found that I have three things that could be contributing to the cramps but I can't change any of them.

Just heard from my daughter, Hannah. She has just found out she has a herniated disc in her back. She is only 26 years old!

We are all falling apart!

Finished

I finished my "Leftover Socks" last night. They look a little wierd, but I think socks can be a little wierd.

I then cast on some socks for Jake. I still have my black sweater and a lace scarf in the works as well. This is the year to knit down the stash! Sweaters up next, Flyingdales by Lisa Lloyd and a zip cardigan for my son Robert.

Summer is coming and I can't wait.

On the needles...

I have three projects going right now. That is pretty normal. I have a black top down cardigan that I am chugging away at. It is on size 2 needles and so is taking a really long time and since it is plain stocking stitch, is really boring. But I need a little black sweater, so maybe it will be done by fall. I am also doing a lace weight scarf and a pair of plain socks out of leftover sock yarn. I have finished one and will post a picture later this weekend.

I find I don't seem to have as much knitting time as I used to. Maybe it's because I want to be outside? Spring makes me want to spend all my time outdoors. I'm sure that's because I've been cooped up inside all winter.

Happy knitting!
