I went with super easy knitting to save on the headache I couldn't shake....damn allergies suck. Unfortunately these won't go away like a normal headache but they also don't get worse from watching TV or knitting so I guess I can't complain to much. I can't really go back to my allergies meds till Bree is weened so I kinda have to deal with the allergies for now. So to make life easier on me, I worked on another dishcloth for Kaity's teacher and when I got bored of that I swapped to my CTH socks. I'll probably finish both by tonight.
The Cloth:
I'm using the Grandma's Favorite pattern. Don't you just hate circular needles that curl up. I hate the curl but I love the needles. I've knit so many dishcloths on these needles that they are smooth as silk so I live with the curl. I really wished that Knit Picks would make a 16" cable for their Options set. I've heard they can't because of the needle length...yada yada yada! I'll just live with my trusty Clovers for dishcloths till I find something better.
The Sock:
Of course I have to bore you all with another pic of socks that look like they aren't really being knit on. I swear I am. I put another 1/2 inch on them tonight. I have about 2 inches of foot and then 2 inches in the toe which always goes fast because of the decreases. :~) I swear I'll be posting these socks as an FO by Friday night tops.
I also joined a new KAl....Summer of the Socks 2007. This KAL really doesn't have a lot of rules which makes it great. If you haven't already checked them out, why don't you hop on over. :~)
Well I think I pretty much covered everything for now. Who knows what will pop into my little brain later.
My little corner of the net to talk about knitting, life and whatever comes to mind!

Love the cloth, love the sock (can't ever post too much about socks) and yeah, I joined Summer of Socks, too. I swear we have the same brain waves or something. Or could it be we sit on our computers all day surfing for more knitting stuff??!?!
ReplyDeleteI like the sock! Nope, not a joiner. I'm just having fun knitting.
