bouncyRight now, the school is opening at 10. We'll see......I'm thinking they might shut'er down, too, since all the big ISDs are closed. Ms boss called at 5 - we are to STAY HOME. She doesn't want to mess her car up. :rollseyes:
Am 3 pattern repeats (33 rounds!) from the toe on my sock...wonder what I'll be doing today? :grin:
My Knitpicks box arrived yesterday - 15 days from when I placed the order. I'm still miffed that I didn't have a choice of delivery methods....of course, I *did* get a pair (almost) of socks out of the wait, but that's beside the point. My hat is up next - I need to rechart it all on one page (right now, all my charts are scattered.....I have replaced *all* the motifs on the original hat. IF it works, my hat will be AWESOME. :fingers crossed:)
Reason # 756 my man is the best - he has decided that hand-knit socks are THE way to go. He has already picked out the yarn for his next pair....I was browsing eBay yesterday, and ran across a listing for 20 skeins of sock yarn (100% merino; 10 pairs of socks worth, hand-painted, similar to Lorna's Laces) for $65. I mentioned it to him, and his response? "So...how many pairs will I get out of it when it gets here?" :snicker: (Yeah....I bought it. It figured out to $4/skein...LL, which I LOVE, is $11/skein. We'll see how it compares when it gets here.) There are at least 4 colorways that shouldn't set off the "man" meter (meaning, a man could wear them without any problem), so....we'll see. IF it knits up like the LL, I'll be able to get a pair of adult socks AND a pair of kid's tube socks out of each set.
I'm off to shower - it was COLD outside! (21*) - then I'll hit the socks. I want a new pair of socks tomorrow!!
