That's funny, it's spelled just like the word 'escape'
I'm free!! Free of the sidewalk! My car DID start on Tuesday (took 20 mins to defrost the ice enough to be safe to drive) and I had to go backwards first, but I escaped the street! I'm back on my driveway and I am STAYING THERE until the roads and the drive into the complex are drier. I picked up my roommate from her work and then we did a Costco run, where we found a giant squishy baby Yoda. Not the Squishmallow, but suitably large and squishy! I'm very pleased with it. And pleased to be off the street!
Hi-LAR-iously, I have a pick up note from Canada Post to go get a package from the drive-through post office (major eyeroll). I have until the end of the month to figure that out.
Last night I was feeling ambitious, but not ambitious enough for sewing, so I got my one-sleeved sweater and started knitting the remaining sleeve. I knew it had been awhile that it was in-progress but I had forgotten just HOW long. I started it December 2018, and I remember it being the sweater I taught myself how to knit continental on bc I had smashed my right hand on my steering wheel a few weeks earlier and cracked my knuckles open. I couldn't tension the yarn with my right hand anymore.
Sleeve #1 was started well in advance of its completion in August 2020. So I went to pick it back up and YEAH so EXCITED to GET THIS DONE. Did I note what size I was knitting? Of course not. I guessed I made a medium even though I said in my Ravelry notes that I was going to knit a smaller size.
Now, of course, my shape has changed since 2018 lol. Ah well. Let's get it sleeved and try it on first before making decisions.
My work project is almost finished, and in the long boring hours of coiling books by hand, I am back on my 1920s wardrobe bullshit. I have Plans for *all of the things*. I have energy for all of the things when I cannot work on them (of course).
