Keep on truckin'

I haven't posted in a while because nothing new has been happening. I'm plugging away at my Seascape, sometimes more quickly than others. I got a little sidetracked by A Game of Thrones (the book, not the TV series), which I'm reading for the first time. It cut into my knitting time a bit. I'd do three rows on the bus and then say, "Oh, I'll read the rest of the way!" But I've started leaving the book at home and only reading it before bed, so I'm getting a bit more knitting done. Not a TON more, because I've been busy, but I did do about a dozen rows today, so...yay!

I can't believe I was thinking about frogging this and starting something new. It's really not so bad. I think I'm getting better at memorizing pattern rows and at reading my knitting. I love the way it's turning out, too. I can't wait to see it done and blocked! Hmm...guess that proves I'm a product knitter more than a process knitter. :)

I think that when I reach the end of the pattern repeats on this, I'll order beads for my Seascape. I also need to get started on a baby sweater for the boy-cousin and his wife's little one, who's on the way. Better start looking at what's in my stash, and figuring out a convenient pattern!
