Drought or Desert?

i've not picked up needles in a few days. seems i cannot concentrate on the fabric of knitting - discomfort? ADD? a little christmas crunching? maybe all of the above.

someone from one of the knitting lists i get email from posted this pattern for the Besotted scarf
and i think it is lovely. It takes 2 skeins of lambs pride worsted. But couldn't you do it in a worsted cotton for someone who would like a scarf in a bit warmer clime? i think so.

it is the friday before christmas - i do not feel ready. i KNOW i am not ready... it will come, ready or not... so better get ready.
