Socktoberfest 2007!

I meant to post to my blog last night and I was so tired that I fell asleep. I fell asleep knitting my second Waterfall sock from the Woolgirl sock club. I have 2 more lace repeats on it then I can start with the toe decreases. I want to finish it before I cast on for another sock.

Yesterdays mail brought me my first installment of Knitting Centrals Sock Club which I will post at the end as not to spoil it for others who havent received theirs yet. Even though everyone gets a different color of the same brand of yarn we all get the same pattern. I love the color that was sent to me but I was thinking about using the BM yarn that I ordered the other day. I am anxiously awaiting it. Since its Socktoberfest starting Oct 1st I plan on knitting as many socks as my left hand will allow because its killing me lately! I am calling the Occupational Therapist on Monday to see if she can squeeze me in for an appointment this coming week.

Of course, I did make some jewelry this week:

I plan on finishing the second sock today and working on the Solstice Slip Sock if so inclined. I think I wil be more inclined to cast on for another sock though. Since finishing the baby sky sock from Cat Bordhi's New Pathways book I wanted to knit one of the adult socks from there. I cant remember which but I think its one of the Sky Architecture ones. Since Cat uses a lot of the Blue Moon colorways in her book to demonstrate I wanted to use it also so I have a big decision to make as to which one I use. Somthing to think about until the mailman arrives.
