Summer Of Socks and Other Knitting







Well, Summer Of Socks 2008, is off to a rather slow start for me.



I had a terrible headache all weekend long and didn't get a single stitch cast on! UGH!! I will most DEFINITELY get something on the needles today!!! I'm with Wendy in that I most definitely won't be winning the award for the most socks....but I am looking forward to participating and seeing all the beautiful socks everyone knits!!!

Other Knitting News: Back on May 11th I posted a "secret" knitting pic........here is an updated picture of said "secret" knitting......Hmmmmm.........Stay tuned as I am SURE it will be quite entertaining!! LOL!!
























Isn't this GORGEOUS???

"Last Mango In Paris"



Dyed and Spun by Jessi and destined to be THIS:










Can't WAIT to get started!! I think this pattern will look GREAT with the colors!!



AND.....last but not least....I have cast on for yet another Belinni shawl....this time the pressure is on as this is requested knitting by my Mother-In-Law!!! (GULP)

I hope your head is feeling better now. I knit some last night, but decided after working my yarn on both 3s and 2s, that I'll need to go down to 1s. Bummer. I was hoping for a nice, fast knit.
