Insomnia

In four hours, I'm going to be leaving the apartment to get on my bus to work. I wish I were asleep. Since I'm not, and I can't find the camera, I'll give a written report of my work in progress. I'm knitting a dishcloth (or something) in eyelet pattern from the Vogue Stitchionary volume one. The yarn is a cobalt blue 100% cotton and I think it's laceweight, or close...the label suggests size 3 needles. I'm using size 4 because that's the smallest I had, and it's really coming along nicely.

And using size 4 (US) metal needles on the El tends to make people respect my personal space. I feel a little safer, too (you want to expose yourself and pee on my shoe, mister? meet the needles!). Get yours here (their photo above).
