Sockapaloooza progress

Just as promised - a happier, shorter, knitting-related post. Here's one of my Sockapalooza socks (and yes, I have a flip flop tan on the top of my feet):


Here's another shot so that you can see the cable better (and peep my tat!):


I started the second sock last Thursday and it's going much faster than the first one. Today at work I was able to turn the heel, thanks to yet another sick computer. I expect to be done with it by the end of the weekend.

I've also been working on my Somewhat Cowl, but I'm only 7 inches into it. A pic right now of it would be Somewhat Boring. Once the sock is done, I'll be able to make more progress on that as well as get back to my Sampler Stole. And start Wendy's Fad-Classic. And start my Rowan Cricket Vest. And some baby booties for my sister (who's expecting her second child the day before Ironman Florida - poor planning on her part, I must say). And....

What a great pattern. And a delicious color. Your sock pal will love them.

Great progress on the sockpal socks! Whats the tattoo of?

Sounds like you have a lot on your to-knit list!

Wendy said...

Woo-hoo! You've caught sock-knittin' fever! Sort of. I guess it's belied by the other projects.

As to that pic you sent me--I prefer to believe that that is random dappling of the leaves' shadows.

Are you going to get the ironman tat filled in?
