Can I get them done before tonight???? I hope so!!!!
I am past the gusset on shop sock # 2 and well on my way working the stockinette around the instep...wooo hooo...I am hoping to have them done tonight...preferably before tonight.
Here is Laura, trying to hide behind her sock and narrowly having her pic taken while crosseyed and tongue sticking out. LOL! She always protests, "NOOOO PICTURES!" ahhhh... but we got her anyway!
I have also FINISHED the "orange sweater' *evil music* again...I went online to see if there were any errors in the pattern, especially concerning the neckline. There weren't mistakes per say, just a lot of knitters with issues with it. They all conceded that the decreasing should be carried another few inches beyond the 5 1/2" that it called for. Also, the neckline was too sloppy... and "weak"...I didn't turn under the hem like the pattern called for. Laura and I looked at the sweater and she suggested about 1/2 an inch worth of 1x1 rib instead. It worked out wonderfully and I am thrilled!

The sock class is going great and here is Eloise helping Jessica out a bit. They are coming right along and I am so proud for them!
Dora (front) and Lela (furthest away) are busy working on their mini socks!
See Dora? She's going to have twins!!! We are still waiting on what gender they are so we can begin making plans for a baby shower this fall!
Everyone now, chant! "Baby stuff, baby stuff, baby stuff!" I like making baby stuff, so I am pretty excited about it!
Okie dokie...I need to update the website in a major bad way...everytime I would try yesterday, things would come up...and I have to get the reminder emails out about the knit in tonight...is everyone going to make it???
Knit on ya'll!
