There hasn't been much blogging lately, because there hasn't been much knitting. The reason is simple: it's February. It's the hottest month, and it's so humid that even if I could touch yarn without sweating profusely, I am so sapped of energy that I cannot concentrate on even the simplest pattern for more than about two seconds.
Which doesn't stop me from looking at knitting, thinking about knitting or reading about knitting. I just don't feel like doing knitting. That is what I mean by the cruelest month.
