are you tired of this Sudoku Square updates yet? I ran out of Gray woolease. am thinking about just using the matchmaker gray that i have and just make a square out of that as a substitue... but I don't want the gray squares to have one square that is off in color...
was thinking about stopping making the squares since i didn't have the same yarn type.. woolease that is in the rest of the colors... but then i thought, lets fly by the seat of my pants no?! So i eyed the Filatura Di Crosa Sempre that i got, and looked at the yardage. 4 skeins equals about 2 skeins of woolease.
Hmmm... let's hook one up to see how it looks.
Interesting pattern it makes so far... i can live with that... let's go for it. This way, I won't waste any time in waiting for woolease, and perhaps I CAN finish the afghan in time for father's day. My deadline is Aug 8th.
I just don't know if I should lug all the squares to taiwan so that i can continue working on it, and incase I finish all the squares in time, i can just give it to my dad, or... just leave the finished squares here, and just give it to my dad the next time he comes to china... which should be soon. Hm... I'll ask when he's thinking of returning... so that i'll have a better gauge.

A new client came by the factory today... whilst making small talk, he asked what i did at night after work. I said I knit. I think when people find out that i knit, they have this weird reaction... it's not they come right out and say, oh isn't that an old lady thing... the asians are too nice for that... but rather they think it's just something i do to pass the time. Which is true i suppose, to pass the time. BUT i could be passing the time with doing something else meaningless... like just plain watch tv, while wasting time. I feel like knitting or crochet, it's occupying my time... not passing time.
