Monday, January 23, 2006 ( 2:14 PM ) Jayme i should have taken pictures. haha! two posts in one month! saturday, my roommate and i went to watch brokeback mountain. so i decided to knit on the trekking sock. today, i was knitting on the same sock at the optometrist's and realized that sometime during the movie i had added a stich. i should have taken a picture of the sock before i ripped it back; it was a really nice increase. didn't even notice it until an inch and a half later. i'm thinking of knitting, of all things, another hat. just as soon as i find the bell cloche hat pattern from last year's knitting pattern-a-day calendar. depending on the gauge, i might use my one skein of birthday yarn (mountain colors weaver's wool quarters in wildflower). or some handpainted yarn/malabrigo. what i really want to knit is some lace or a sweater. i'd like to knit something from the yarn i have... feh. my secret santa got me two knitpicks samplers, the shadow (lace weight) and dancing? (fingering/sock weight). i had to look it up on the website and i just noticed that they raised the minimum for free shipping to $40. drat. [note to self: sockapalOOOza/sockapal3za/whatever sign-ups start at 9PM pacific time. i should look it up and see if i want to participate.] [edit: decided to join sockapalOOOza, over at blue blog alison's. mainly because i like knitting for other people. if it's for me, i get sidetracked by other things.] # | |
