I haven't gotten much done in the last few weeks; I had the new shingles vaccine and the side effects were brutal. I had 3 days of fever, arm pain, and I generally felt blah and a little foggy! Of course I got worried about the virus but since the symptoms exactly tracked the vaccine side effects I just chilled and it went away on schedule. Add to that a little brain fog and lingering malaise for about a week... All seems to be good now and I'm back to exercising and normal activity.
I did manage to get a fair bit done on the quilt; I'm now forced to think about the last border. I finally decided on snowflakes as a seasonal symbol, and I ordered some quilting templates online. It feels good to have made that decision.
I finished one of the two scarves on the loom but determined I don't have enough weft to do the 2nd scarf. I dyed some more yesterday, hoping for a gentler shade of fuchsia but it was not to be; it's pretty bright. It should be dry and ready to weave with by tonight!. Hoping to finish it quickly!
I'm also knitting on the Double your Pleasure cowl when the cats won't let me quilt, which is pretty much anytime they figure out I'm quilting. I've started locking them out of the room.
