At WWKIP day I started the second Five Hour Baby Sweater. It is a fun knit and since I would be taking the train a few times this week I was looking forward to getting some serious work done on it. When I finally found myself on the train the other day, I happily settled in to do some knitting. First out came the yarn and next the needles. Then I realized that I had forgotten the pattern. Prime public transportation knitting time -WASTED. I almost knit on it just to knit but I did not want to have to rip back.
To make matters worse, I did not even have a book with me. I almost bounced off the train in frustration. I did have to seriously resist the urge to claw my eyes out. At least I had my Ipod so I could listen to podcasts. Yeah, knitting podcasts. But knitting podcasts can be very annoying when you CANNOT knit. So after my errands were done I headed over to Gotta Knit to pick up some yarn and needles. I am itching to do some socks. Gotta Knit has moved. I did not know this. Clearly I was not meant to get any knitting done that day.

How frustrating! Sometimes it’s just not meant to be… Been there. Done that.
