A friend dropped by and we spent a goodly amount of time catching up. It was great. She loved the afghan. Loved how much it matched the real-life version I was trying to picture with it.
At one point, she exclaimed, You should be knitting!
I laughed. I’m on an easier section right now, yes, but that means only six areas of color, five of them in balls and one that has to be pulled through, and to work on that and flip all the strands over from row to row while talking would be like trying to solve Rubik’s cubes while juggling them.

Some projects make good “social knitting” and others emphatically do not!
Comment by ccr in MA 08.01.23 @ 4:58 amI admire your yarn flipping. I made one pair of green-yellow striped socks for a John Deere- loving nephew (before we could find any combo of painted or dyed colors) and that was enough.

No intarsia or complex textures …
