Happy Monday

Have you ever started a new job on Monday? That is exactly what I did today. Thankfully, I spent a day or two on site prior to leaving my other job, and the place is somewhat low-key. It was an easy first day, and I fell into a project immediately. I think this is a result of the insane amount of temp work that I have done in my life. I am quite accustomed to walking into a strange office and acting as if I have been doing this job in this place for years.

If I spent as much time knitting as I do researching knitting, reading knitting blogs, perusing knitting patterns, looking for sale yarn online, etc., I would be finished with far more than I am. I have completed 3 of 35.5 inches on the waistband of Sage's,

and I am already bored and contemplating a Boogie Vest, which is baffling me. The pattern does not baffle me, but rather it is my desire to knit a vest that baffles me. Typically, I regard the vest with the same disregard as I do the chunky sleeveless turtleneck. I fail to see the point of such a garment. But, for some reason, I am so anxious to try this pattern, and I think it has something to do with the cable needles that my Knitty Cafe Secret Pal sent me earlier this month.

Knitting is the ultimate Gemini endeavor: juggling multiple projects and finishing none.
