Okay okay okay, I am such a followere! VBG! But I signed up for the knitting olypics! (When I can get help, and or learn how to do it, I’ll try and post a button concerning them. For now, however, just google Yarn Harlette’s Knitting Olypics. I will be doing knee socks, I have only done ankle socks untill now. Dgd’s socks were ankle, both ds#3’s and ds#1’s were ankle, so this will be why knee socks for me. Also I will choosing a lace pattern to use on them as I have never used a fine yarn like fingering weight on a lace pattern and it be successfull before.
What lace pattern? Well I am still debating that. I will be choosing the pattern from Vogue Knitting’s “Stitchionary: volume one, knit and purl” but don’t haven’t determined the exact stitch pattern yet. Picture of the book is to the left. If you have a copy of this book, look at the lace patterns and leave a comment with a suggestion as to which lace pattern you recomend. I’d be greatful any/all help offered!
I also have to go survey my sock yarn, most of my stash is sock yarn, and choose which to use. I guess knowing the stitch pattern should help me to choose which yarn.
General Update
Still no new news from ds#1 in New York City. I guess it’s about time to send another “mom-snappy” email and hope he gets it! I did leave a message on his voicemail for his phone, which is working again so he must have it back, saying to call. So maybe tonight when he can use his anytime minutes hopefully he’ll call.
I am charging up the Swiffer Sweeper and recharging the batteries for the Swiffer Wet Jet. I think it’s about time I de-grime the kitchen floor. Well okay, it’s not that bad but it does need doing. I want to replace the Swiffer Duster so I can dust the ceiling fans, and get the cobwebs without risking falling off of a chair while stretching out to reach them! UGH, I hate housework! (Also have laundry to finish up.)
Maybe I’ll post more later tonight, but no promises.
