Another post* *includes actual knitting content!!
As I said last time, I've been in a knitting slump. But I have knit some, and I'm starting to get back in the swing of it all. What I need to do is to get hooked on another TV series. I got a lot of knitting done last year while watching Doctor Who and Torchwood (not to mention becoming an even bigger geek). This time, I think it's going to be Battlestar Galactica. After all, my friends all love it and I have awesome friends, so this might be promising.
In November, I finished the Cable Net socks. They are my first entry fro the 2009 Kentucky State Fair. I even knit them with the 'extra spicy' heels. I love them!
I've started on Eunny Jang's Autumn Rose in Mineral. HOTT!
I've also been knitting on my Pomatomus that I'm knitting from my handspun BFL.
And of course, I've finished another yarn since I posted a few days ago. This is my hand dyed superwash merino. Each skein is one sock. I haven't measured the yardage yet, but it should be plenty. The one thing I did differently is I navajo-plied each skein. Now, the socks will be self striping. I can't wait to see how they knit up.
I plan on getting the socks done very soon, and getting to work on the sweater. When I do, I swear I'll update. I've started using the Google reader to read my knitting blogs and I've set it as one of my home tabs. I'm hoping that will encourage me to post more!
