And Then I Start Some Lyrics

Today, I reached an important milestone in my knitting.
I was knitting all day.  I have gotten some orders and I am working hard to make pretty things.  Spending a federal holiday knitting is way up there in my favorite things list.  But, back to my milestone.  About 3 o'clock today, watching First Wives Club was really boring.  Being on a deadline, I didn't have time for a nap.  So, I just laid down on the couch and knitted .  I would say it is the ultimate in laziness to lay down in the middle of a project, but I kept knitting.  This is probably a reflection of Diane Lane's acting.  I am so happy that I have mastered this skill and it has me wondering what else I could possible do while knitting.  Obviously, anything involving water is out, like showering or swimming.  I might be able to ride a stationary bike.  Some knitters in my area knit on the commute.  Me, I don't particularly enjoy knitting on the commute to work because I feel like every time I step on a train, I am instantly covered in a film of ickiness.  Nothing says "I knitted this with love" like 100 commuters coughing on your work.  Plus, I always have to sit next to someone with large elbows.  The ultimate of the knitting sickness would be if I can nail down knitting and spinning at once.  Making yarn as I use yarn...
