Today I went out to try to find a US8. Hilltop East was completely out so I headed elsewhere and shortly afterward, my car broke down.
Frick.
I got a ride home from the repair shop and I sat there thinking about knitting and about not having a free US8 (anything besides the impending co$t$ of my car repair!!!). I put dinner on the stove and while it finished bubbling away, rooted around in some old/unfinished projects and ripped a US8 out of a project I know I will never finish. (Now I will have to find something else to do with that yarn!)
I started this from the clown car box o yarn...

When the first 2 stripes were knit, it was a bit shocking and seemed almost neon! Looking at it later I don't see it that way anymore...at least I don't think I do...I'm still not convinced.
What I do know is that it feels great to be knitting again...



Looks pretty and NOT neon on my monitor. I will try to control my reaction when I see it (better than checking out your sloper!).
