And, not too much progress...no pic. :(! I have only 4 more inches to go and base is finished. Stockinette puts me to sleep, no matter the time of day...WHY!!! I mean I know it is kind of boring...but geesh! I am becoming a narcoleptic stockinette knitter or what!! I will attempt a few more rows before I go to bed...
My rescue yarn came in today! I am the proud owner of 2 more skeins of chocolate souffle LP worsted! They are in the project bag getting acquainted with their long lost cousin!
This came in today! My yarn for Odessa! My first time knitting with Rowan yarn. I have a couple of dk wool skeins in the stash, just haven't used them yet. It is very soft, and very much like the Cashmere luxury dk at my ACMoore's so, any future hats will have that yarn. I wasn't going to get the yarn at first, but while I found the LP choc. souffle yarn on the site, this flew into the cart, along with some SP yarn...and...well...after the purchase I found out no choc. souffle..so I got lotus pink as a substitute..
On the sock front...so close...but so far!!! Only about 1 inch left until toe decreases, which should be interesting as...well...I kind of am 8 stitches short. I tried it on and it fits quite well, so I didn't frog it. I really think it will be ok. I have learned so much from this pair that next time will be easier and I hope a heck of a lot faster...
Off I go...pairs skating happening right now!
