Soooo, the rhythm is -- knit, two three, purl, two three, knit, two three, etc. A nice easy rhythm. Nothing complicated. I can do this and think of other things. I know that on each row I knit the knits and purl the purls, and I know how the stitch to be worked looks like.
I am working on two pieces. I work on one for a while, read for a bit, and then work on the other piece. The underneath piece above is worked with that funny kinky yarn. A knit stitch does not always look like a knit stitch, nor a purl a purl. It gets confusing. I have to rip back frequently. This is NOT relaxing.
The other piece, however, is worked in just plain worsted type yarn, a little thicker than four ply worsted. Smooth. Easy to work . THIS is relaxing. I think I am going to put the kinky yarn piece away until AFTER Easter. A challenge will be okay then. For now just knit, two three, purl, two three and do some reading. Relax. Ease into Easter calmly.
