Finally got around to tallying up my road trip stats! It was a LONG drive, especially with a baby and a dog, but I was able to add so much length to my WIP!
I'm loving how this sweater is working up. Very grateful to have a partner who will take on the driving so I can make some knitting progress! 🧶

Day 5 of driving and knitting!
We are in for a shorter day of driving, but I still have a lot of sweater to knit!
I also wanted to show a close up of the stitches to show just how teeny tiny they are!

Finally, on the road again for day 3 of our trip! We had a very extended Midwestern goodbye that got us out the door hours later than expected, but here we are!

Let's see how far we can drive, and how many rows I can knit with the pup on my lap.

Can't wait to update you all on today's road trip stats! Here is a preview of today. We took a driving break and helped out a family member on her hobby farm! The dog and my son both loved seeing the animals. Now I need to get her to save me the fleece for spinning! #knitsky 🧶
