Here's a better view of how my sock is coming along!

Pretty, ain't it?

Slowly, Slowly

I am still knitting. Slowly. It's March break season in this neck of the woods and many people want time off. Which means that relief pharmacists are working lots! If I could clone myself, I could make enough money for a year in these next 2 weeks. Alas, the technology is not so advanced. So I will simply make hay whilke the sun is shining, so to speak. Definitely a figure o speech around here right now. We've got freezing rain at moment. Yuck!


The sock, it does continue. I work on it every night, even if it's only for 1 row. It all depends on how tired and fumble fingered I am. fumble fingered is not a good way to do lace, you know? so here it is, in all it's glory.


Today's model is my handy-dandy book-light.

And now I am off to chip my car free from it's layer of ice. Not really, I am going to start it up with the remote starter and let it thaw.....

Motion

Yesterday I bit the bullet and ripped out the too-small heel. I then started knitting some more on the sock, until I screwed up! At which point I fixed it and decided to put it away for the day. Then I knitted on my Twisty Turns wrap, until I saw a mistake and decided to just put the knitting away. It's an easy fix, I knitted where I should have purled, so I just have to unravel the one stitch down a few rows and crochet it back up, but I figured the knitting gods were telling me something. The mistake isn't even very visible, but I will know it's there and it'll bug me....

So I picked up my latest book and read until the wrestling came on the tv. Nothing like watching a bunch of fit young men in their underwear throw each other around!

Maybe today the knitting gods will favour me and all will be well. We shall see....
