“I’m so excited, and I just can’t hide it! I know, I know, I know, I know, I finished one sock, one sock!” -Pointer Sisters (with liberal adaptions :))
And it actually fits! The only thing I should have done is make the cuff longer, but I got impatient with it. I really like the colors, and it’s very comfy, not to mention warm! I noticed it’s a lot warmer than my standard cotton socks. And I’ve cast on for the 2nd sock, using magic loop this time, and I like it a lot more. It’s just so much faster, especially since the loops are flexible and there’s no poking :) And I splurged on some Addi Turbos, and boy are those puppies quick! So I’m hoping to have this sock done a lot sooner (the 1st one took me forever). I’m starting to understand the appeal of sock knitting, it can be quite enjoyable.
In other knitting news, Scout opened a shop online! All her sweet sock yarn is gone now, but I’m sure she’s dyeing away like mad. It’s like your friendly LYS, but online! (wow, that’s quite a cliche’d sentence) So go buy some yarn when there’s more, I sure will!
Finally, there are only 4 more days of class!!! Next Friday I will be free! And then in only one week, I’ll be wearing a cap and gown and walking down the lawn at Brown Hall. Yippee! Then I won’t have to squat here in the EE lab and listen to the Lab TA suck his girlfriend’s lips off all morning. Gross!
