Socks

I decided that I had to knit a pair of socks (well at least one sock) prior to teaching a sock workshop.

I know how to knit socks but I don’t do it often. I’m still deciding if I’m going to use Andrea Mowry’s DRK Everyday Sock pattern (purchased on Ravelry) for the class. To help me decide I cast on a sock.

The socks are knit from the toe up and the cast on can be scary. Andrea has an amazing video to help you get started. It might take a few tries but once you understand her technique it’s a great way to start your toe up socks.

I’m using a brand new colour of Crazy Zauberball with Addi FlexiFlips.

There has been a lot of jumping between projects.

The football draft didn’t go well for me last night. I received a D+. This year I picked players from teams that I like. That way I don’t have to watch and root for teams that I want to lose.

Lynn was in the store today and got most of the mail orders out. The last few will be shipped tomorrow. Then I’m back in the store on Saturday. I’m relaxed and ready to get back to work.
