PHEW 🙂
I finally got my sock yarns wound and ready to go, now all I need to do is finish up some WIPS and I am free to knit whatever I would like to 🙂 First thing tho I have to start my grandmas Cables and Lace Cardigan so it will be the very first thing I cast on once Ravelympics is over. I also have a skein of HandMaiden Casbah sock yarn in Loopified (TLE Second Anniversary Kit) that will be made into luxurious (has cashmere in it yummm) socks also for my grandma. She requested the Cardi, chose the pattern, and yarn color and knows she will be getting it sometime after or around Thanksgiving but the socks will be total surprise for her 🙂
So far my quest to make all sorts of socks for SOS/Christmas presents isnt panning out like I had planned but there is still plenty of time I will just have to be a bit more dilligent in getting them cast on and finished quickly LOL. Then of course theres the sweater I need to make for Uncle Atchie and the Stole for Tasha. Hers doesnt have to be done till next April in time for her Senior Prom but his will need to be started soon as well so he can wear it this winter. 2 sweater type objects in time for winter….might be a bit interesting around here pretty soon 🙂
You would think by now I would know not to leave yarn on a swift unattended for even a second…
 I turned around to get a drink and this is what I found when I looked back. He had taken the yarn off the ballwinder and was playing with it, guess he likes the smell 🙂 I expected smething like this from Charlie, but Bligh usually doesnt mess with yarn except of course when its bein wound. What a SIlly Boy he is 🙂
Well I guess its time I started working on my WIP’s again… I sure hope I get the Soldier Socks done pretty soon, about 3in to go on number 1 then can do the heel and gusset then can do the other one to the same point and switch back to the larger needles and all stockinette…NO MORE RIBBING on that pair!! How are you doing on your Ravelympics 2008 Knitting/Crocheting? Let me know I love to hear about other peoples projects!
