I have been working away at my thesis and it is now mostly written though I am sure I will have a lot more to do once my adviser gives me his feedback. I now technically only have Introduction, Conclusion and Related Literature to write up along with some formatting. Can I do it in three weeks? I think I can.<\/p>\n<p>To help me unwind, I have been knitting a lot. Actually, I think fall is my knitting season. I have been knitting a lot last year around this time as well. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bojnberry\/5144235055\/\" title=\"CIMG6216 by bojnberry, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1232\/5144235055_f1b8ecc085.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" alt=\"CIMG6216\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This sock was made from some fancy shmancy yarn I got at the Fibrefest in Almonte a few weeks ago. I am on the pleased side with them though I have not worn them yet. I need to block them first and I just haven&#8217;t gotten around to it. They are on a bit of a larger size and I was going to give them to Chris, but I made one of the bands too tight so he was not able to take the sock off without help. It is too bad because the other band was just fine. I have to work on my binding off technique. They fit fine on me and I am sure that they will shrink in the wash anyway.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bojnberry\/5144233369\/\" title=\"CIMG6222 by bojnberry, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4006\/5144233369_d501554729.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" alt=\"CIMG6222\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I made this bag on a whim as part of the Free Pattern Testers group. It took me two days and I got to use up some of my acrylic stash which has been sitting in the mud room looking at me longingly for last three years. I am quite pleased with the bag, especially since it is my first knit AND sew project.
