2024 continues to clock on by—August is now out the door.

The fourth blanket square is proving to be less enjoyable than the third one was last month. I did push to keep myself moving and not stagnate, but there definitely wasn’t the obsessive drive like I had for the orange based on before this. Because of this focus, I was able to knit the same amount I did in July, which feels pretty good. And while I was working and musing about having only two more squares to go and then I need to worry about sashings and borders, I realized I have a solution already in-stash that I find acceptable, I think. So we’ll see if I change my mind when I get there. In September it will continue to be hot as blazes here—the joys of Gulf Coast Summer™—but I’m hoping to keep moving on this project and finish the current square (with about 1/3 left to go) and get a solid start on square number five (colors yet to be determined).

My only craft related goal in the early 2020s is to knit something every month: done.

So. What about you, kitten?  What have you been up to? Reading any good books—I continue to be pleased with my new horror releases. Watching anything interesting? Maybe listening to podcasts? Have any new cast ons or longer projects you’re working on?

Take care of yourselves and each other,

XO,
Manda
