Apparently, all one needs in order to successfully break through a knitting funk is a new project, a Harry Potter dvd, and an extra large cup of tea.

Witness the beginnings of Baby Cardigan #2, currently unnamed as I haven’t decided if i’m going to use any sort of cutesy motifs when I finish it. The pattern is just a super simple top down round yoke cardigan…the yoke and ribbing will be in that pink, with the body and sleeves in a stripey pink-purple-white. I just finished the yoke, and will be splitting to start the body during my normal Thursday night tv. So yeah. I think i’ll be doing all my knitting in front of the tv from now on.

I forgot this picture was on my camera…Kimba spent an entire evening snoozing on my feet/practically under my legs while I worked on Baby Cardigan #1 last week. It was too cute not to post.

Knitting in front of the TV is fabulous. It’s a little too distracting sometimes when it’s a complicated pattern, but I find that for simpler patterns, it’s easier to sit there stitch after stitch.
