Dashing from Knitty.
You have to love when your husband yells from another room "honey, I thought that we were going to have a photo shoot today". I think that he is really getting into my knitting blog!
Last weekend I decided to bring my car project inside to finish it for project spectrum. Sunne mentioned these on her blog, and I knew I had to make them. Sunne is making them also, so be sure to check back on Sunnelite for finished photos. I love these, and have already cast on for another pair in a chocolate brown. A few modifications where made. Knitting 20 rounds after the 3rd cable instead of 24, and knitting 15 rounds after the thumb instead of the 18. This made them a little shorter.

Yes, I am still tying the laces of my seven year old. Call it laziness or just the fact that I like to baby the baby. Charlie and Libby both learned when they were five, and I was very adamant about teaching them things. I have definitely relaxed in many ways with the third. I am going to teach him "how to " over spring break, maybe.

As I sat here, I pondered the idea of going for a run. I joined 100 miles by April 1st. I thought that this would be easy for me to accomplish. The weather definitely didn't help matters. I really don't like to run in the snow, and our treadmill is in our sun room which is not insulated and is the exact temperature as outside. Freezing! I have run 22 miles. This could be accomplished by April 1st if I ran 6.5 miles a day. I chose to go back inside and knit. I think I will sign up for 100 miles by July 4th, maybe.
