This I know
It takes on average 21 days for a chicken egg to be laid and a chick to emerge.
It takes a turkey 28 days to make the same trip.
A duck takes 28 days too. So in 3-4 weeks, all of this life is created and ready to go! Less than a month!
So what’s my problem? I have been working on this pair of socks for 24 days now, and I have 6 days to go to finish this sock in time to be entered in the Wendy Knits “Socks From the Toe Up” KAL on Ravelry. (If you are not a member of Ravelry, take note that memberships are now immediately approved! No more waiting!)
So, chicken 21 days. Turkey and ducks, 28 days. Feathers and feet and eyes and all that. Me, not so efficient.
I can console myself that it takes a cow a touch over 9 months to create a calf. A 200 pound calf.
I have 6 days to turn the heel and create the leg, and bind off. At least I’ve got thyme. (groan).

It’s all relative, eh?
That’s an intense-looking knit-a-long. You can get those socks done, though- I know it!
