A dear knitting friend sent me this card — two creatures in the throes of Monkey Love.
This picture is more than a little disturbing and probably illegal. 😉
I am extremely happy and relieved to announce the completion of Sleeve Numero Uno:
Are the rest of you as sick of this project as moi? I’ll try to take a picture of the whole sweater in the next few days. In the meantime, I am going to pick up the second sleeve and then pick up another project. I will work on this at home in the evenings, but I need a break.ÂÂ
Sally and I are going to start a mini-knitalong in the next few days. I want a portable project (no, I don’t mean socks). For me a portable project is MINDLESS knitting that does not require me to pay attention or do heavy lifting in the brain department. Socks are knit on such tiny needles that I really need to focus to see what I am doing — remember, I have old eyes.  I want to be able to knit while I visit with friends over lunch or at my knitting group and therefore socks do not fit my definition of MINDLESS, portable knitting. Portable, yes…
Anyway, have a great Valentine’s Day!! Any special plans??
I am planning on piling my entire stash in a big ole heap on the family room floor, sorting and ziplocking………….
a daunting task…photos will be posted sometime tomorrow.
I CAN’T WAIT TO HEAR MORE ABOUT YOUR KAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YIPPEE……….I’M IN.
How sad, Do I need to get a life?!
P.S
Your monkeys are destined for Hollywood!

Cool card, and yes, for the dirty minded of us-spicy! The sweater is fabulous! I love everything about this one! I agree with you on the portable knitting. No thought required is the best! I’m curious to see what the KAL will be…

Ah, mindless knitting! I’m nearly Fair Isled out and can’t wait to begin a mindless project!
