hold on to your socks....

....one of the boot socks is done - as is 1/2 of a BBS sock. so i am knitting 4 socks concurrently instead of 2. I had to finish one sock of the boot socks, though, because i didn't wind off the yarn equally and i was afraid of moving along too swiftly on the "yarn challenged" sock.

so ... do i have a photo?????? ha ha h ah a....... maybe tomorrow...

i ordered some of the new knitpicks birch circulars that will interchange with my knitpicks options - so now i can concurrent more socks at the same time.....

Rachael Ray on Thursday - that is IF i can figure out what exactly i can put on my feet that won't kill me standing for 2+ hours that are not sneakers...... merrills shouldn't count - but can i take that chance???

socks, yarn and sockyarn.....



here is a picture of the lorna's laces september color i just received - it's called cherries jubilee.
i think it will be wonderful for a pair of fall into winter socks. maybe for me.... but i doubt it the way i tend to make them.

Today is thursday as you can tell from the date above. I just put up a mini blind (that i think was designated for my bedroom) in the garage so the new folks next door don't have to gaze at the garbage bin describes my garage these days.

we are enjoying the new tv - i am not totally against only having the 32" in the room - after all it IS high definition. i think the husband is enjoying it way more than i do - i am not a tv person during the day.

what is on the needles you ask? a pair of bbs (big black socks) are started in regia stretch in cranberry - no not black but easily dye-able. also phil's boot socks from puckerbrush sock yarn (again - no clue where i got this but it is a nice dk weight sock yarn that will be perfect for phil when he has to wear his work boots on a site). should i get up from the computer i will snap the socks and add them tomorrow.

talk about way too much sock yarn - if i get up my nerve i will snap a stash shot of the closet.... where SOME of it is.

it's a monday kind of tuesday...


... that comes after a three day weekend - it's a regular "singing the blues day" all day long.....

the bangles i think - who knows - but that (and all the other lyrics running around in the cavern of my head) is why i can't remember what i had for breakfast.

tuesday is always tuesday with morrie - but today was a little off and a little weird. i actually think i will take it up with her at some point.

i am knitting socks... and socks... and socks... i got two skeins of some kind of "specialty color" from lorna's laces today. i believe it is september's color.... but it might be augusts... will take apic before i "cake" it.

did i put a picture of my noni-bag on this page? i don't believe i did. so i will upload one now. did the bag a while ago and embellished it right before the wedding i attended in june. came out nicely if i do say so myself.
