A post from the high seas

I realize I have not even posted about the last sea trip yet, and here I am at sea again. This time I am aboard the CCGS Hudson and right now we are at about 41 N and 65 W. We just left yesterday and it has been a little but rocky out here. The nice thing about the Hudson though is that we have the internet and satellite TV, so it's almost as good as being at home minus all the motion. (I don't know about your house, but mine definately doesn not pitch and roll.)




I brought some knitting in hopes to get the time to do some. Among the 3 balls of sock yarn is the lacey wrap I just started in some kind of sage laceweight merino. It is my first time knitting something so intricate and delicate and the enviroment that I am attempting it in is not ideal. Walking down the hall without bumping into things is hard enough let alone trying to knit lace.

My house tends to pitch and roll. Usually after I've had a glass or 4 of wine. I'm sure those two events are not related though.

To knit lace you really do need a non-moving sitting place. I tried to knit lace in the car this weekend, but the shocks are non-existant and I nearly poked out an eye. Good thing I wear glasses!
