Little by little

Another pair of socks is finished.  The yarn color is named gray brown marl.  When I bought it I did not realize just by looking at the skein that it would knit into big blocks of color.  If I had, I might not have chosen it; I like skinny stripes.  But these are OK.  The next time I buy yarn I will look at it more closely.  I have already started another pair, a repeat of the ones I made for Cynthia.  (See March 16 post.)

Monday I finished pin-basting Soul Searching but have not yet begun quilting it.  I wanted to get it up off the living room floor before E and family came over for supper.

Last Friday a sheet metal contractor came to look at the dryer exhaust duct to see how it can be fixed.  Randy emptied the cabinet under the sink in the half-bath, thinking the new duct might need to go through there on its way out.  Yesterday I put things back in the cabinet, throwing away some old candles and wreaths, and sorting out some candlesticks to donate.  These small things may not be noticeable, but gradually, bit by bit, we are removing clutter from the house.
