My Day Off

Because I work in a progressive nonprofit world, we get holidays like Columbus Day (really, I don't want to celebrate a guy who didn't really discover America and subsequently caused the mass extinction of many American Indigenous Peoples) replaced with holidays like Cesar Chavez Day!

I don't know how people spend their day off, but I've spent it napping and thinking about how I should update Crafty Diversions. I can't really do any major projects because I actually have to work later and meet a client. Plus, m' achin' back is totally bothering me. Hey, that means, I can KNIT some more!

These are 2 of my current knitting projects. The top is my Clapotis project I'm making with my own hand-dyed yarn at the Wine, Dye 'n Knit party (See "Backtrack..." posted 3/11/06). The bottom one is the project commissioned by my friend Kim, who originally wanted fingerless gloves so that she could wear it in her freezing cold office. After seeing how beautiful her dyed yarn is, we decided a scarf would be best to show off! I'm doing this in the seafoam stitch.
