I just need to get through this weekend
I can't wait until this weekend is over! It has been busy all week at work-although I kind of like it-makes work go by faster since there's always something for me to do...Really there's always stuff for me to do but I dont want to do those things. It's just that customers can get meaner faster...and they get in my way.
But this is a knitting blog so how about some knitting content.
Two nights ago I finished the Lorna's Laces Sheppard socks in Ravenswood. Although the skeins were from the same dyelot, there is a definate difference. The first sock has WAY more pink. That was from a frogged sock so I needed a new skein by the time I got to the toe (make longer legs) and its all blue. Plus that toe is really pointy because I forgot to stop when I got to 12 stitches. On the other hand the second sock's toe is completely square (ish) because I was watching Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and went past the point where I shouldve started decreasing. But did I frog? NO. I hate frogging, especially since the socks were already so different, theres no point. Also the ribbing is way shorter-I hate ribbing I've realized.
What's next on the list?
What I *should* do next:
