In One Month and 2 Days, I'll Finally Be Able to Sit Down...
6:30AM-we head out:
And over to and across the Golden Gate Bridge:
Originally I had planned to photograph our long journey but the next gazillion miles were a blur.

It's kinda hard for me to grasp that, 4 months ago, I wouldn't even walk around the block and now I can do this:
No one actually walked on water, btw. That's a ferry
Knitting has been reduced to quick and easy projects that still end up being Walking related:
A Malabrigo Koolhaas in the Geranio colorway for cool San Francisco nights:
And the official (warm) headgear of Team Unraveled
Also, a pink cotton kerchief to hide "3-Day Hair"knit in Rowan Handknit dk. (3-Day hair is what you get after a day of walking, a shower and no blow dryer)
clearly I have not had a botox shot....
Fundraising update: Because of the extreme generosity of knitting friends, muggle friends, work colleagues and my lovely family I have exceeded my 3-Day Fundraising Goal and have over $3000 in donations!! Thank you all SO very much for your support and words of encouragement! (I owe some thank you drawings so stay tuned)
