I have no real pictures… because frankly, knitting another four inches of lace on this stole will not show up as any thing more than, welll a blob of yarn. All I have, photographically speaking, is this:
That’s my laptop, with the screen open to an online Continuing Legal Education video. Next to it, you see my lace, my diet coke, and a notebook. I have until June 30 to finish watching CLE videos so I can keep my license active. I have eight hours of video to go…
I find watching a video of a guy talking, well, tedious. Even if he’s talking about something useful and interesting. If he’s not, or if he’s a boring speaker, it’s almost impossible. Unless…
Unless I have something to do with my hands that occupies some, but not all, of my brain. Luckly, Chrysopolis is in the right place that there’s very little going on that is not now familiar to me. So… I can knit my lace and listen to my “videos” (again, they show only a talking head). When I need to, I stop knitting and look at the outlines that come with the vidoes.
Without this lace project, I would never be able to sit through several hours a day of CLE videos. And thus, because of Chrysopolis, I have not only gone completely batty watching these things, but I’ll be able to finish in time to meet the CLE deadline to keep my license active!
I knew I loved lace!

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Isn’t it amazing how if we keep our hands and certain parts of the mind busy with knitting we can concentrate better?
Keep it up – 20 hours and you’ll be done.
