Stealth

Other than that weird shawl I finished the other day, just about all my other OTN projects are stealth projects.  Gift items.  Items I can't talk about until the gift has been given.  And not talking about them is killing me!  

I love knitting gifts for friends and family, but I also love talking about what I'm knitting.  In the past, I would simply psyco-cackle to my immediate family about the project, they would totally ignore me, and all would be good.  But now that I have this blog, I feel compelled to tell the world what I'm knitting.  And I can't right now.  Aack!  It's killing me!

I have been making lots of progress on my stealth projects.   That probably has something to do with the amount of time I've spent knitting while waiting on the kids lately.  Over six hours at the bowling alley just yesterday!  Zack's team won the set, by the way.

Today's plan is to go get my run in, which I really need to go do before it gets any hotter.  It's already 76 degrees and it's not even 8:30 a.m. yet.  After that, I'll spend some time knitting while I pretend to do laundry.  I may be able to get one stealth project finished today.  I'll be seeing the recipient in the next few days.  Maybe I can go ahead and give it to her, 3 months early, just so I can talk about it.

  1. I love the image of you sneaking in a knit! Now if you can only figure out how to run and knit at the same time. (can you pretend you are in the bathtub and knit then???)
