day 65 of tracywearswool: purple haze

tracywearswool day 65 out of 100 — and I thought I would finally try the t-shirt thing!

There is a person in our Facebook Group that always looks so put together, and she frequently wears a tied-up t-shirt. (I feel I shouldn’t divulge her name in this blog – because it is a private group!) But if you are in the group… you probably know who she is!

This is my first attempt, and I was not sure if I was doing it right, or if it worked. But heck, it was comfortable. And it was nice and bright purple against the gray haze of the Portland sky.

For those of you new to this blog …I am involved in a 100-Day Challenge, put on by Wool& — Same dress. 100 days. (And yes, you can wash it!) Part of my reasons for deciding to do this was to simplify my life, especially with my lifestyle.

What’s in store today:

Knitting and planning my morning while in bed predawn with the dogs. It is getting to be a habit — but only in Portland. My RV has a murphy bed… so not so well set up for coffee in bed. Better when I have a couch and table. pretty much hung around the house, knitting, podcasts, and catching up with friends on the phone. I did meet with someone over Zoom about my back and she is going to help me with a specific plan to help strengthen and support my lower back… so I can keep dancing, gardening, etc.

And… down to the last sleeve of my sweater. (This video is in reverse — taken with my cell phone… so if my knitting looks like some strange lefthanded continental business….)

I popped into the new Target in Portland… and they had t-shirts in great colors for $5.. I snagged this grape one as well as a pink one. Perfect weight for tying up. Will be great over my Sierra!

It’s still pretty gray and drizzly in the Pacific Northwest, and I have been meaning to try some brighter colors…

Well, you won’t lose me in a crowd, that’s for sure. I will to remember this when all the covid nonsense is over, and I can travel to some music, or yarn festivals!

And of course, it started to rain during photos…. oh well.

This is my work space when I am in Portland, chipping away at my blog, or writing up new patterns for knitting..or shopping for deals!

Thanks for joining me on day 65 of tracywearswool.

Stay tuned for the next 35 days!

Be well, and make some music… or dance a little — or knit a sweater!
