Bad blogger, Bad

Yes, I know! You are all asking, "where the hell have you been?" I don't have a good answer. Working, sleeping, and farting on the sofa! I have been very dull the past week. Nothing much going on.

I did get my new copy of Big Girl Knits! I am totally jazzed about that. Started a Yahoo group for people working on patterns from the book.

The only knitting I have been doing is socks. Socks, socks, and socks. The yellow and pink stripped pair is a little stretch because I took them off for the photo. They were made with Strapaz Cotton Effects. The crazy strip pair, well, they are ugly. I was more concerned with

technique then the color. They are made with a ball of Magic Stripes from Lion Brand. It is not a bad sock yarn, but it sure does come in some ugLEE colors. The purple pair is Trekking. It is a very fine yarn that I am doing on size 1 DPNs. The yarn is fussy, so they are taking a long time.
I guess that is it for now. I'll try and post more regularly.
