Almost Done
So what did I do?
I hid in a box.
I started a pair of socks.
And I took pictures of a hummingbird.
In the rain.

A lot of the fiber arts I enjoy are things like tatting, netmaking, chair caning, and even weaving, where people will come up to me when I demonstrate and solemnly tell me, "That's a lost art."

Hehe, there is always time for other things than knitting, even if that some times feels like a waist of time... You are doing well, it looks so pretty!
Looks like you've caught my affliction - I've got a serious case of procrastination. Combined with startitis. Very nasty indeed!
(hee hee, love the photo in the box!)
For a minute, I thought I heard shades of Dr. Seuss. "I hid in a box, and started some socks"! It takes a quick hand to catch a hummingbird! Good shot.
Alwen in a Box. That is so funny.
Lovely looking hummingbird too!
Very Seussical! excellent procrastination.
I see you've been busy! It's tough finding the time to hide in boxes these days.
Are we avoiding the end stage? I know how that goes :)
this post made me smile. i like the color contrast in the socks, they look like fun knitting.
