TADA!! May I present My Basket Weaved Toe Up W/ A difference Socks 
They are made from Regia Bamboo/ Wool Blend 2 sk with partials left of each skein. I made the cuff about 4in long which is just about right for me. The patterns I used are Wendy Johnson’s (leave a comment on her blog for a chance to win leftover Wollmeise from her latest pattern) Toe up wih a Difference pattern, (I love the gusset change) and Basket Weave Rib from Sensational Knitted Socks By Charlene Schurch. By inserting the Basket Weave into it my SOS Socks also qualify for Sock Knitters Anon (SKA) July Sockdown Challenge WOO HOO!
As per my usual MO I had to cast on for another pair of socks right away despite the other 3 pr waiting to be finished one of which needs to be done soon (Soldier Socks oops). I cast on Thelonious by Cookie A and have completed the ribbing and the first 7 rows of the pattern. So far its pretty easy once you (if you’re like me) ask and receive help on how to do the Make1Purl (m1p) and Make1Knit (m1k). I hadnt ever seen those instructions before so I had to ask about them. Next month (Aug) is a month off between yearly challenge starts in SKA and is a UFO month for those of us who have them to finish *raises hand*. Ravelympics Starts on Ravelry at the start of the Olympics and there are alot of challenges to do, I’ve joined SockPut and WIPWrestling. Right now I’m thinking that the WIP one is gonna be my best bet esp since I need to finish the Soldier Socks as soon as possible.
Nayla has a new home!! My niece from Seneca came by Friday nite after her, my son, and some of her friends from work went to Silver Dollar City for the day. Anyways, she saw Nayla and fell in love so we let her take her home Sat when she left She loves kitties as does the rest of her family so Nayla will have a good home. Nayla will be a spoiled rotten kitty before anybody can blink an eye
Thats all for today… I will be working on the Knit-n-Stitch again this week adding somemore items, books and Cross Stitch patterns as well as some of the kits that Brian and I have been discussing. I will also be taking pics of my WIPs and posting them so that I can show them before and after the Ravelympics and Aug WIP Challenges.
Have a Nice Evening Everyone!
