Monovision

 There was only 65 stitches left to bind off on the Le'Enveloppe I am making for my oldest
granddaughter so I worked through those bit by bit.
I have to do some more seaming up and then finish the edging when I can see better.
It is not as easy as you think to work with only one eye. 
 Try it for a few minutes and you will see what I mean. 
 A migraine does that to me-both eyes are impaired for the first 12 hours
 and the right eye only for another 18-20.
  It means I work by memory for a lot of things and slowly for all the rest.
This little hat was started by my granddaughter; 
 she will be learning to do machine knitting over our next few visits. 
 I'm hoping I will not have to wait another 6 months before I see her again!

  3. I am surprised that you can do anything like that with a migraine, not to mention fiddly details! I am sure it'll be there when you feel better, no point in making your head hurt worse than it already does:(
    hope you're feeling better soon!

AHHH, SOCKS ON THE NEEDLES!

 The new yarn is pleasant to work with--enjoy as soft as KnitPicks Stroll but not as rough as LionBrand's sock yarn.  I do love the colo...
