I’m not sure why, but there it is, I’m still surprised by how much progress can be made when one is monogamous to one’s knitting projects. ¬†
I finished the first Sox Sock on the train last night and (join with me) immediately cast on for the second. ¬†Well maybe not so immediately as I spent the time then and there to work in the ends. ¬†I know. ¬†Totally amazing!! ¬†It hit me that I have two pairs that are awaiting end workage still sitting. ¬†One pair has been sitting since late June LAST YEAR. ¬†Been so darn long that I’ve actually misplaced one of the socks. ¬†Sigh. ¬†I figured it was worth a shot to see if this speeds things up a bit
I won’t mention that the sock knitting is the only knitting that I’ve done since last week at SnB. ¬†I’ve been so damn tired by the time the kids go to bed that I’m just not motivated to do much of anything else. ¬†Monday night I was in bed at 9:30. ¬†Last night I actually made it through the game. ¬†7-0 against the evil Yankees might have something to do with the ability to stay awake, but I still didn’t have the energy to do more than just watch the game. ¬†I can’t remember the last time I just sat and watched TV! ¬†Its got to be the weather.
Whatever it is, this too shall pass.
Craft on!

I wonder if your sock knitting helped the sox win last night… ;o)

Woo Hoo!

Uh, oh! Jess did it! Now if you don’t knit socks during a game they will lose! I guess it’s better than wearing a smelly jersey that got beer spilled on it during a crucial game.

Cute socks…even if they are representative of an evil team.
Not as evil as their nemesis the Yankees…and all about the disqualifying DH rule….(because the only *real* baseball is NL, dontcha know). Go Mets!

Love that corrugated rib! The burden of knitting the Sox to a win, however… yeah, good luck with that.

You so have to go for magic looping two socks at a time, eliminates the second sock syndrome.
