Biting Off A Bit To Chew, Maybe

I am going to cast on yet another project(s) for camping.  Even though the Icelanding Lopi Lace 22.5* would be perfect because I will be camping somewhere that will probably not break 70* F but will be a little damp, I figure so I wouldn't want to ruin the lace yarn.  So I am going to be knitting a couple of the grandmas dishcloth but also try the Hobbit Cowl by Suze Vitale in Highland Handmades Quaking Aspen Sock weight yarn in the Sea Glass colorway and also possibly in the Fibernymph fingering weight in Autumn Harvest, thats if my mum likes the pattern.  When I started to wind the Sea Glass into a ball, the color scheme just took my breath away in a pale blue and green and white colors and the feel was just wonderful.  Its kind of like getting bored with one pattern and just have to start another.  Wonder why I just cant be monogamous and just finish one thing.  I even got a couple of balls in the dark heather grey color of Lopi to continue it a bit more before I even finished the other balls I had gotten in the first place.  And funny thing is that I am only going to be camping for 4 nights/5 days.  We will see.   But this seems like something I can create at a good pace.  I am also trying to keep up with a friend on the Mary O'Reilly mystery books on my kindle.  So that adds extra challenges with the knitting.

Have a good night. Sweet dreams.
