unravelled Wednesday - back at it

Life is returning to something like normal. After our last small COVID outbreak we are back at donut days - 6 in a row, so we've all got our fingers crossed. I appear to have returned to the office pretty much full time, which I am not sad about, particularly because I work in a physically large office with only 3 other people.

I have found it hard to settle into a book, which is really strange. I'm reading Jew(ish) by Matt Greene. It's a memoir about identity and I'm finding it fascinating because we have very similar backgrounds, and similar personal identity challenges. I'm wouldn't be enjoying it as much if I didn't see myself and my family reflected so strongly. 

I haven't had any problem settling in to the knitting. I've got one sleeve left on my Sock Arms jumper. I love how it's looking, although it didn't occur to me to separately check my gauge for the sleeves, so the body fits how I expected, and the sleeves are quite fitted.

I'm also chugging away at the Tracery vest. I've just finished the first repeat (of probably three). it's not a fast knit, but there is something about two handed colourwork that is so soothing.

As usual on a Wednesday I'm linking up with Kat from As Kat knits (although I forgot to actually come to the link party last week!) Thanks for hosting Kat.

  2. Both projects look like fun. I think I saw Tracery finished on another blog - very, very pretty! The sock arms jumper is just a happy knit!!

  3. I also find 2 stranded knits calming, maybe because it is SLOW knitting. Lovely knits you are working on.
