I'm trying to keep all my plates spinning. I'm definitely not as ahead of schedule as I managed last month, but I'm steadily making progress and, perhaps, better off than I was then. For me, dividing concentration between multiple projects is the toughest aspect of my monthly challenge. I've never been fantastic at balancing and staggering my work. I've gotten through life a career procrastinator, convinced that I work best under pressure, almost constantly feeling overwhelmed. However, that's changing. As comfortable as old habits may be, I'm finally catching on to the concept of slow-and-steady as a means toward winning the race; it's, really, a very pleasurable mental/physical sensation.
This month the socks are for Mike. April is his birth month (side note: My sense of self-importance deludes me to the point I feel having a birth "day" is not celebratory enough to mark the grand occasion of one's entrance into the world; therefore, I reserve an entire month for these purposes- by proxy, Mike is sucked into this form of festivity (side,side note: Under my influence, he is becoming quite the primadonna). Mike picked color 858 Arbol in Malabrigo sock on his own. It's quite easy to get a man into a yarn store when he knows he will be the beneficiary of FOs. Together, we chose a very basic, masculine, seed stitch rib. I'm only working one sock at a time, which is atypical, but I'm using my only 1.5US "40 circulars on my sweater and had no other immediate option.
