When I saw the sweater below I instantly loved it. There is a KAL about it. I hesitated for awhile not wanting to spend that much on a book that is written in Japanese. I finally broke down and got the book. Oh and it is wonderful. There are other designs that I love so it was well worth purchasing. There are plenty of charts and others on the net are figuring the thing out. I decided not to join the KAL since they are way ahead of me and I don't even have the yarn for it yet. I am thinking of using Cascade 220. I figure to check out all the information on this design and then get to it after the Mara KAL.

The Foot

Well I got to see a Dr finally and he basically said that its going to take another month or so. He asked if I wanted a walking boot and I said yes. Now that does not mean that I am walking. I tried yesterday and it was still very painful. So I am using the crutches and boot. Hopefully soon I will get used to it or it will be easier or heal a little more cause I am really tired of the crutches.

I took my sketchbook along; my new Moleskine which I love by the way. I thought I could draw while I waited. I looked around the room and it just seemed so antiseptic. I thought all this is too boring to draw but I went ahead anyways.

Here is that little drawing I did of medical supplies on top of a cabinet. The interesting thing was I really got a lot of pleasure out of doing this.

Then I decided to draw a picture that was hanging but the Dr. showed up. There are supposed to be Big Horn Sheep here but the never made it in the drawing so I just left it as it is.
