this morning my mind was filled to bursting with musings on mittens--mitten technique, mitten construction and, mainly, whether the use of duplicate stitch would comprimise the historical integrity of Latvian mittens. i had mentally composed a suitably mittenny post, and carried it with me the better part of the day...
...and once at home, promptly forgot it. i did away with my chagrin while winding a good bit of my stash. surrounded by colours, i gathered together pinks, browns, oranges and ivory, fully intending to put both them and the new cast on (Middle Eastern CO) that i learned this morning to work in a new, magnificent mitten.
then i ran into the sock pattern that Adriana had shown me last night.
there's a very good chance that i'll have both a new mitten and sock cast on by the end of the evening.

Temptation is a terrible thing. The only thing keeping me from casting on multiple socks is my well-grounded common sense. I don't like to bite off more than I can chew, especially since I have less knitting time these days.
Are you able to knit during the day?
