Air travel...

Air travel shrink-wraps the world by leaving it small, odourless, tidy and usually out of sight. - Michael Palin

Monday...

Monday:

• It snowed all day. Not heavily, just prettily. I did a fair amount of walking - without fear. It gets better all the time.
  
  
• Went to Merivale by bus (in the snow) to deliver a job application, reading Runciman most of the way.
  
  
• Went to Byward Market to buy haggis for the haggis party I'm holding February 12. I can't think of anything particularly Scottish to tie the date to - it may just have to be a delayed Burns supper.
  
  
• Lisa and Lynne came over for our Monday evening get-togethers in which we sort out our lives. It went very well. Progress, I think, for all of us.
  

Twelve inches...

commodorified gave me alpaca yarn for Christmas, and knitting needles, and suggested a pattern to work on, a wraparound moebius scarf that can also go over the head. It's a beautiful shade of blue, maybe the UCLA blue on the Wikipedia chart.

I practised and I practised and I practised. On red wool intended for that purpose.

And then last week I started work on the alpaca. I got a little lost in the pattern at one point and thought I could brazen it out by fixing it later, but no, it was getting a bit too free-form. So yesterday I unravelled about 4" and continued.

Today I realized it's about 12" long already.

I am not a brilliant knitter¹ but this is fun.
