Starting Over...

Well. I've moved to Portland, ME, started nursing school, started taking piano lessons, and now test-knit for Quince & Co., a wonderful, local yarn company that puts out tons of amazing patterns and beautiful yarn. In between all of this, I've decided it would be beneficial to me to use this blog to process the various aspects of my life as a whole, instead of compartmentalizing. Knitting is, after all, a therapeutic hobby--that time spent thinking about the math of a pattern, or simply letting my fingers do the thinking for me on a simple k3p1 repeat allows my brain to reset, form new connections, and just breathe.


So for now, I've been working on easy socks from zauberball crazy ball, a yarn I NEVER get tired of, and a pattern that is simple and wonderful and works like a charm for the easiest, handsomest socks there are. Check out my ravelry account if you have one for more details, including where to find the pattern. Let it be known that spending priceless time knitting these socks are going to help me understand the lipid transport system... please, oh, please... let it be so.
