finally some progress

I finished gypsy's sleeves tonight--all that's left is blocking and sewing, which I may wait on since I think I want to knit smooch before the summer's over, and there's plenty of weather-time left for wearing gypsy, plus I'm still working on phil(dar) and the mod coat. I never have this much stuff going at once--never!

I'm thinking a blocking board might be a nice thing to have, to replace my usual folded towels on the floor. This would make a good birthday gift, or perhaps a gift for someone if she gets into one of the top two library science schools in the country. (Hint, sweetie...) Of course, the latter one is a big if, but the birthday will probably happen. I'm not counting my chickens. I never count my chickens--they keep hopping around and it's hard to tell them apart. (Well, I guess that would be after they've hatched, which mixes up the saying, but whatever. I'm obviously metaphorically troubled these days.)
