me: Now I need to decide how to end the textured section, and make a transition into plain stockinette for the foot.
me: plain stockinette is boring, I think it needs a little border just before the toe.
an outside observer, looking at my nearly-finished sock: This looks like it was constructed by Gian Lorenzo Bernini to be installed in the Vatican.
today's warm up: The sky is so blue today and I want to fall into it but you know, be careful what you wish for
