Knitting for fun and relaxation

Yeah, it sounds good. Wish it was happening in the Catty house. Actually, I've been knitting as decompression before bed. Usually I read, but since life has been a bit chaotic the past few weeks, I'm finding the knitting is allowing thoughts to unravel and empty before sleep. I've finished the KYarns Charity projects and am 1/3rd through some quick holiday knitting.
I've decided in addition to the CatMan Aran, I'll be taking along the Java Socks and the Leaves Shawl pattern for the Christmas trip projects. I was seriously debating the shawl since it's lace, but I'm thinking focus might do me well. What's particularly funny is the yarn I'm using is the Koigu from the ill-attempted Oli-vest from last Christmas. Freaky, huh?
