'Be ready to do one more forever...'

That's what Sarah Kline always says, while I'm crouched on the floor watching her do another thirty frog-squats... I've been thinking about that a lot over the last 24 hours of Morecambe & Wise (finally!) on the TV, Match of the Day, a beautiful sunny day and a lot of wrist ache... Just one more row, just one more row...

I thought it would be a really great idea to knit Chrysanthemum from Haiku Knits; it's a really easy, simple Kimono-style cardigan which can actually be worn in two different ways (it took me quite a while of staring at the pictures to work it out - then I read the instructions and it was all obviously there...). Really easy, in fact, in that you're just knitting three rectangular shapes - one normal one, one with a chunk cut out, and one very thin, long one. So simple, it hurts. Literally. I never thought I'd get bored of stocking stitch, but after 31 inches of the stuff, I'm pretty fed up. This is definitely an exercise in Japanese disciple and zen mastery...
