I’m not sure if you get the same way, but when I have a cold, I can’t think. My head gets all woolly and cloudy, and it’s very hard to maintain thought direction. It looks like it is also affecting my knitting…
With only half a sleeve to go and the hood, I’m almost done with the Cable and Lace Hoodie. There’s not much to see – the pattern probably won’t show until it’s worn.
Glorious, cuddly alpaca. :-) However, despite knowing how nice it will be to wear a new top, I have been distracted.
This is some Knitsch 100% New Zealand merino sock yarn in a colourway called Connie that I’ve had for a while.
It’s very like a sorbet refresher between courses, don’t you think? Perhaps it’s what I need to clear my mind and get over this wretched cold before I start to tech edit the pattern for the Strong Heart mittens.
Let’s not forget finishing that hoodie!


I would be distracted by that colourway as well, gorgeous!
Sorry you are still not well….and yes it looks like sorbet
Oh both look great, that yarn has such a fitting name.
Not fair! I’ve been wanting the Connie colourway for a year and have none!
Hope you come right soon – I’m at the last, lingering stage of my own cold and it is such an effort to stitch anything!
Pretty sorbet yarn! Ahhh the lure of a new knit – gets me every time….
When my head is muddled (health, lack of sleep, whatever), I find a light-colored yarn is always easier to knit.
Sending you healthy vibes!
That sock yarn is pooling beautifully. I really love when the colors spiral down a sock.
I totally know what you mean about concentration with a cold, I’m just getting over one myself and have resorted to spinning and Xbox to keep myself amused as I couldn’t do anything complicated at all!
The sweater looks so warm!
Take care of yourself
That Connie yarn is the sweetest!
I can only manage very simple tv-knitting when I’m sick. Hope you feel better soon.
