Details, Details

It's been about details around here this week. Itsy-bitsy little knit stitches translated onto watercolor paper in pretty colors. It is quite painstaking work. My painted stitches are probably five times the size of a real knit stitch. I just can't paint that small. By the end of the day yesterday, my back was hurting and my bottom was sore from sitting so much. But I got it done and it's going out tonight. They will be part of the new book Kristin Knits which should be out in September.


There's been pitiful menus of late - it always happens when a deadline nears. This weekend, I've got to do better. I've even been missing what is going outside and inside - staying so focused on this project. I've even been dreaming about knitting stitches - how they loop through each other. When that happens, I know I need a break!


Yesterday evening, I managed to look at the daffodils that have been putting on their show. With daffodils, it's easy to miss the details.


The kittens are growing and are so much fun. They play like crazy and then crash and burn. This little foot is just too precious.
