la la la la la trying to pretend it's not happening...

so yesterday the boss and her henchwoman (who is lovely, really)* gave me a very nice toilet bag to take to hospital. especially if I end up on a ward, i will need something to keep all my things in while i perambulate back and forth to the ablutions room. (let's hope that i don't have to do that for very long)

So today I was quite enjoying packing it full of lots of smelly things and travel sizes of toothpaste and shampoo and moisturiser.

until i remembered just what it was that i was packing for.



* I can see that I need to be like cangetmad and have a dramatis personae filed somewhere.

socks!

i have ordered some 2.75mm dpns from knitpicks to come with my wooden options which will come on my birthday when my parents arrive.

i am going to learn to knit not only in the round (Ysolda are you listening?) but on DPNs. this is my challenge for my convalescence.

i need some yarn to go with those 2.75mm needles. what am i going to buy? tell me, I need to know.

ETA: And a sock pattern, of course, too.
