Have you ever drawn a complete blank?

I can't remember how I picked up stitches last time to make the booga bag. I had no problem last time, but this time I am drawing a complete blank. I am going to try again tomorrow, and if I still can't do it I will bring it to knitting class. I am probably over tired and fried from a busy day at work, maybe tomorrow it will come back to me.

I made some good progress on the rose square and on the blanket that is hanging on the Diva right now. I have half a skein of yarn left to finish the blanket on the machine then I am going to take it off and work the edges by hand. I am going to use a long circular needle to work four rows of garter stitch on either end, but I am not sure what I will do on the sides. Since it is all stockinette stitch I need to do something to keep it from curling. I could pick up stitches and do garter stitch, or do some type of crochet edge. I am not much of a crocheter so I am not sure what would work.

I am too tired to do much else today, probably just a few more rows on the rose square and then to sleep.
