I finished the socks! I really concentrated on finishing my Halloween socks. I loved the yarn and how it striped. I used size 1 needles, String Theory Continuum sock yarn in the color way Little Ghost Nebula with a basic sock pattern. I love my new socks and I got to wear them to knitting today.
Yes, I went to my favorite yarn shop today and was able to knit with my friends. What a great day. I really felt sad though. I miss going to knitting. I am really going to try and get there for at least an hour each Friday or most Fridays. The good news is that in two weeks I am off again and two weeks after that is Thanksgiving and I am off again. So, I can definitely go those weeks. Something to look forward to.
I also finished the October Mid Month KAL. The pattern was a witch by Alli Barrett. I used size 6 needles with Sugar and Cream yarn in orange.
Guess, you can tell it’s October and Halloween since I have been using a lot of orange colored yarn?
I have purchased some new yarn. I loved the String Theory Continuum yarn that I had to get Candy Corn and Electron from Simply Socks.
From the Loopy Ewe, I recently purchased Dream in Color’s Everlasting Sock yarn in Rosy and Tidewater. It’s a nice sock yarn. The Rosy color way is different from any other colors I have.
Now that I finished my Halloween sock, I need to get knitting on the embossed leaves sock, the prayer shawl for Christmas, and the baby hat for my niece (yikes, the baby is due soon). I also need to start on the Great American afghan project that my friends are also knitting and need to get ready for the 2010 Kalendar scarf ( I still have to block my other scarf and take a picture of the finished project).
I can’t finish without showing a new picture of Maggie. Doesn’t she look content and happy?
Time is flying and I’m glad. I’m counting the days until the end of April. Hope it goes real fast.
