Socks are definitely coming along. I do think I enjoy knitting them. I like figuring out new things. Of course the heel bit confused me for a while, but thanks to knittinghelp.com, I got it all figured out. Also, I measured boy's foot so hopefully I'll make them long enough and everything.

Pictures! This is the heel part, so you're looking at the back of the sock.



Detail on the heel:



It's been about five days for the first one, which for me isn't too bad. I'm sure the second one will go faster.

Socks!

Last night, boy and I went to Michaels and I got US6 dpns. Here is how I feel about them.



I also got some nice green wool blah blah yarn. It looks nice.



And I started.



And I must say, it's going well. I've got the hang of dpns, and currently I've got a couple inches of k2 p2 ribbing action. I'm sure there's certain death ahead when I reach the heel, but so far, so good.

FINISHED YAY

I actually finished something! Isn't that wonderful. I think so. Mr. Dinosaur is done. I stayed up til midnight working on him last night, and I finished everything up today. He looks pretty good, his head is a bit funny, I think he just needs a face.

Some assembly required.






Today I am going to Michaels and buying needles and yarn for socks. Can't only be working on one project now can I. My Ravenclaw scarf will probably be done for next winter. But it does match MY NEW COLLEGE. DOMINICAN UNIVERSITY. WHERE I'M GOING. Heh. I think maybe a camera and ipod case should be next. In addition to the socks. Maybe the sweater will come later.

Well. It's coming.

Sigh. I was able to get a lot done this week. Also the secret project is pretty much done. It didn't turn out too well, I realized I read the pattern wrong. Ohhh well. Sorry kid. I still need to work on the dinosaur. I want to start this cardigan, but I'm scared. Socks are still on the list and just as terrifying. I think I knit too slow.
