Knitting News

I've been busy cleaning up the house in preparation of my mother's visit MONDAY!! and procrastinating by playing with my yarn.

My camera has a habit of disappearing on me. So pictures have been rather lacking on this site. I have sock pictures to show and tell.

This is my sock a few weeks back. Notice the weird pooling--I don't mind, it makes my sock even more unique and funky--just like I like them. But if you notice the amount of yarn I still have left. Not really enough to make another sock, but this sock length of this sock is were most people tend to stop knitting.

This pictures--last night--about an inch or so ago, is mid calf (I am afraid to try the sock on age for fear of snapping the needles over my heel. And I still have a bit of yarn left--still enough for a few more inches...will this sock end?? Actually I expect this sock to be done this weekend. I've also been told that i must start the next sock immediately afterwards--otherwise it may turn into THE lone sock.

I went knitting at the library today. Finally got L. to come too--I think she had fun. Everyone fawned over my sock--undeservedly I think--it's just a regular sock. D. contributed to my S.P.E.W. Hat project (pictures forth coming, but NOT tonight). She knit the entire hat during the meeting--I was floored. And pleased that I'll have one more hat to donate to the Children's Hospital.

Edit: Here's the pic.

Yesterday I was naughty and spent the morning winding yarn from hanks into balls--and started a lace shawl. So far it looks like a tangled mess of yarn--but I am assured that it'll look better rows in and of course blocked.
