I tried to take a picture of the capelet in progress but it just sat there in an angry green lump and refused to smile. And my brother's sweater? Hell--it isn't even talking to me. My knitting is grumbling. I have reason to fear a mutiny. I knew starting grad school full time on top of a full editing workload would be a serious stretch, time wise. Somehow I didn't realize, or didn't want to admit, that it was going to mean quite so much time. That is, all my time. I haven't been able to knit all week, apart from knitting circle the other night, and subway knitting when I'm lucky enough to get a seat. I think I need to learn to knit in my sleep.

Your situation is temporary..... repeat that to yourself often.

Ooh, that's good advice.

If you took a 15 minute break and picked up the capelet, would you be able to put it down? I haven't quite learned how to do the quick knitting fixes yet, but maybe it would help, and then it won't rise up in the night and attack.

"My knitting is grumbling." Hee! I love that.
