So I finished the toe-up socks made with Berroco Sox last night while watching Dancing With The Stars and Project Runway.
The pattern is just a basic toe-up sock with heel flap and gusset. Nothing fancy. I really enjoyed knitting these, I think, because I liked the colors. And I'm one of those people who gets drawn in by "I wonder what color/patterning will come next?" It just makes me want to knit on and on. The yarn is nice. The feel of the fabric reminded me of the Araucania Ranco socks I made a while ago. Very nice!
I've also finished one of Pete's Fingerless Mitts. He's really anxious to have the pair since it's gotten chilly in the mornings when he heads out to work. The second one is getting there. I'm on the colorwork portion of the hand so he should have them soon. So he can stop giving me the evil eye when I knit on something else.
I still don't have a decent picture of the birthday nano. Working on it. And I've been doing a lot of NPR listening. The state of the economy has me pissed and frustrated. I'm sick of the mainstream media and the slanted reports and information (not that NPR is immune)and I'm trying to get an informed opinion of the situation in our country. It sucks. People are greedy. And we, the little people, are shit out of luck. Or so it seems anyway.
