So, this weekend, my kids were off with their dad, and I spent some quality time with my close friend, the Clapotis. And I tweeted that I wish I could pur faster with all those stitch markers in my way. Two folks suggested I lose the markers and just reverse stockinette the drop stitches instead. And I did. And, baby, that thing is zooming now! I am so much happier with my progress!

You probably remember that I wanted to be done by the 9th. That is tomorrow. I might as well call for some life insurance leads, cause that idea id all but dead. I might make it of I skip work today, and scouts this evening and sleep tonight, but I can’t do any of those things, so…….nope, won’t be finished by my self-imposed deadline.

In other news, my hats are a big hit, and I have been requested to make more of them. Not for That One. Oh, no. The next set is for his family. But I am finishing the Clapotis first, and then a hat for Batman.

P.S. Do you know how hard it is to not abbreviate Clapotis? But then I get the mental image of knitting syphilis and I just type the whole thing out. Over and over and over.
