Lost

I feel a little lost in my knitting world right now. It always happens, and I've probably blogged about it before. After finishing a project that I fall in love with, I cast on for a few projects and don't fall in love with those. Right now I'm knitting a baby sweater, socks, and Featherweight. Now, the socks are pretty simple; plain vanilla. We went away to the Shreveport area last weekend, and I actually knit on the ride there and during our stay. This is what I have:

When will I finish them? Maybe on the 8 hour car ride to Florida in a week?

Also, I'll have you know that I picked up my February Lady Sweater again. I noticed a little error on the end of one of my rows. The garter stitch was off on the last two stitches. Apparently, although I can fix any other mistake in the middle of my work, I cannot fix one on the end. It will just be a matter of time before I rip out four rows and reknit. I would really love to avoid that!

In home news, we are gearing up for our vacation next week. We're supposed to go to Florida (the Pensacola area, to be exact) and we've toyed with not going. We'll be staying in a time-share and they have a pool, which ultimately made our decision. We can't be like everyone else and cancel our plans. The people on the coasts of Louisiana and Florida so desperately need business. I don't even know why I am bringing this up. The thought of what this is doing to wildlife, etc. is heartbreaking. I just wish they would plug it up already. Betcha the kids at MIT could figure it out.
