With school starting, and my starting a new position (part-time) with the school system as a parent ombudsman, I’ve been way too busy this fall and unfortunately let this slip.
I finally did finish those patriotic socks – I had to take a break from crocheting dishcloths after making over 100 straight (literally). I love how the socks turned out – they were the sock of the month kit by knitter.com for June:
I’ve also started and am working on the feet of a pair of socks out of Cascade Fixation using Gillingham’s new book Knitting Circles Around Socks for knitting 2 at a time on 2 circulars. It is different to knit with such stretchy yarn.
Right now, however, I’m in the middle of knitting up scarves for holiday presents for my bowling team and my kids’ teachers, aids and therapists. I have 7 done and have another 5 or so to go. I’m using a variety of fun yarn and big needles, so it goes rather quickly.
