Woot.  Thanks to actually concentrating on the sock, and a bonus amount of knitting time last night as we went out for dinner, I finished the first sock while on the ferry this morning.  Here it is lounging next to the ferry pier after I got off the boat.

Thanks to the early A.M. sun actually shining, the colors are a bit washed out.  The blue reads a much deeper blue.  I’ll cast on the second sock on the way home tonight.

Thanks to a couple of Jamberry parties on Facebook a few weeks back, I found a nifty way to “polish” my nails without giving up the drying time, sitting idle.  As someone who barely bothered with the nails (pedis are a totally different matter), I’m really enjoying these wraps.  They’re just cool.  Here’s what I’m wearing now.  The wraps come on a sheet with enough for two manis and two pedis.

I took these pictures Sunday and the wraps are still going strong.  No lifting, no peeling, nothin!  Best yet, I have ridges that run the length of my nails that I don’t need to buff off in order to get these babies to stick on properly.  I’m sold 🙂

–Craft on!
