Friends, I'm still here!! Just busy doing the mom/work thing. Spending all my free time knitting and playing with my babes.
Rachels Sweater you Ask? Well her birthday has long past, and the sweater is not quite complete. She has seen it, and LOVES it. Pictures as soon as its done.
My new love.... SOCKS!! HOLY COW I LOVE SOCKS!!!! I've been so afraid of them, people complain about turning the heel, blah blah blah, I LOVE MAKING THE HEEL!!! Just look at this perfect heel...

I tried socks before, hated the DPNS, wanted to poke my own eyes out with the dpns. Socks on Circs? ROCK. SOCKS ON CIRCS IS THE WAY TO GO MAN!!!

So smooth, so wicked. But you MUST get good needles. Me, I invested in Some Addi Natura's. Skacels wicked smooth join, pliant cord, topped with Bamboo beauties? Heaven. Knitters heaven. I'm a little further along then these pictures but here, have a look at my tree trunk legs while i try on my masterpiece...

I cant wait to show you the finished sock. Its so wicked. I love socks. I will be making many many more for sure. The perfect little portable project.
Have I done anything else? Yep, A weekend quick pair of mitts for Rena, she fell on the sidewalk and ripped the palm right out of the mitts I made her at the begining of winter. So a new pair were in order. . .

Rena is my biggest knitting fan. She slept with those mitts on the night I made them. My heart couldnt have been any bigger that night :)
HELLO OUT THERE!!! ITs good to be back.
