Headache from hell and itchy knitter hands.

This makes my hands itch. Not in that annoying way of having a bug bite, but in the "I really wish I could get my hands on this and knit something with it" way. It is beautiful to look at. It is purple. It is lace weight, which makes me nervous. It is because of this lace weight and the price that makes me not save up my pennies so quickly for it because I have never knitted lace before. However, this is going to be taken care of quite easily since I now have Victorian Lace Today. I just have not worked up to lace yet, but, by the end of the summer I am going to be a lace knitter, or at least have delved into it some (enough so I won't be so nervous about it).

I am having headaches today. For the most part they are quite dull but then there is a stabbing pain like someone is stabbing my brain with an ice pick. When that happens everything just freezes in me for a second and I wince and tighten because it f'ing hurts!

Still, I am up and I am dressed, and I am contemplating retrieving my knitting. Hubby's hat isn't far from coming off of the circular and on to the double pointed needles.

Because of an on-line knitting group I have joined, I have found a sock pattern for two needles, which I am most tempted to try. I have yarn for socks waiting to be used, even though Hubby says he doesn't want socks. So, I may just make some "slouch socks" for myself, or one of my friends, or one of my sisters.
