Recipe for self-care

A scalding shower. (Not for everyone I know, but trust me, for those of us who like a hot shower, an extra hot one feels really good :-)

Starting a pair of arm warmers for myself. I'm a 3/4 sleeve kind of gal, even in winter, and have been wanting to knit myself a pair for far too long. I dove into the stash and came up with a skein of Malabrigo worsted in "Vermilion". This is the yarn I used to knit Julia's scarf last spring.

The pattern is Toast and is quite straightforward. I'm hoping to be wearing these babies by week's end. (The baby blanket is coming along slowly. The baby will arrive before it is ready. So it goes.)
