I am experiencing post-vacation doldrums (it wasn't a true vacation, but being away from home at my sister's house a week was at least partly a vacation!). So I am feeling meh today.

I did do a few rows on the blanket. But I also began executing my backup plan: making a coffee cup cozy in the same pattern as the blanket. I did this with his older brother, too -- didn't finish his blanket by the party, either, so I gave him a cozy and an IOU. I'm still going to work on the blanket over the next 23 days but I'm not going to push myself too hard.

Also: knit a strawberry for my crafting challenge. Two challenges complete, three to go (or four if I'm feeling like overachieving.)
