Slow and Steady

This week with my knitting I am very much the tortoise rather than the hare. It's been a busy week -- the Mister away for a few days on a work trip, meetings, work, and the usual business of running a household and raising a child -- so I've been pretty much plodding along. My two WIPs have grown a bit since you last saw them.

The sweater back is measuring 13 inches (I have to get to 15.25 before I have to follow any more directions) and Rainbow's Hitchhiker is now at 28 teeth, in large part thanks to my first in-person board meeting in more than two years last night. We met in person largely because we started by taking a board photo, but I think we will be going back to Zoom meetings after this seeing as case counts are rising again. It was a long meeting -- we started at 6:30 and didn't wrap up until just after 9 -- but having my knitting in my lap kept me alert and engaged, and that was especially appreciated because I'd had two work meetings earlier in the day.

We have no real plans for this weekend other than a Costco trip to stock up on some household supplies and picking up my flowers and herbs from the synagogue plant sale. There is some rain in the forecast, but I'm hoping it's scattered enough to allow me to put the new plants in the ground. Today I've got a load of laundry to do and am hoping for a quiet work day.

Happy weekending!
