It’s already Tuesday and I’m still catching up from the weekend away. Not once, all weekend, did the Funnel Neck see the light of day (or night, or anything outside of the knitting bag) except for the moment it took me to stuff it into a plastic bag to keep the two balls of stretchy boucle from knotting itself around everything else crammed in along side it. Not one stitch was knitted. I had even put both sleeves on the one circ. so that I’d only have to go through it once. My penance has been to set the lovely multi toned scarf aside and knit ONLY on the sleeves since my return. Sleeve Island is feeling a lot more like a desert island.
During the day, I’m breaking from work, not knitting, to take a 3 mile hike through the woods. These winter days are glorious, snappy and bright, good for blowing the cobwebs out of my mind.
You didn’t want to see six inches of red sleeves, did you?

I like your photos. I wouldn’t *mind* seeing the sleeve but the outdoor photos are probably more entertaining.
Why not both? It’s amazing how beautiful a day can be, isn’t it? The mornings are getting lighter and I’m beginning to see the beauty of the dawn.
Absolutely idyllic, Judy. Thanks for sharing.
Ooh–that second picture? For a second, I thought it was a splash from a rock you’d thrown . . . very cool!
Nope, I’m good with running water and rocks. 🙂 Although I feel sure the sleeves are nice too…..
Mmmm, that looks soo refreshing. I should be doing the same these days, but, well…
Hey, I wouldn’t mind being stuck on sleeve island with that scenery! The last one is my favorite.
Those colors are great! Brown, grey, tan, gold, and touches of green. It would make a beautiful yarn or garment. Very inspiring.
