A Little Bit Of Progress

Knitting by Judy @ 2:46 pm PST
tags: , ,

I was hoping to report that the Vera socks are complete. Alas, I fell asleep in front of the TV last night, and I didn’t keep knitting so progress stalled.

I have been known to knit in my sleep under these circumstances. But the results are rarely happy ones. It usually looks as though I were knitting an entirely different object. (Can you say “frog city?”)

I have just a few rows of ribbing and then the bind off left and I’m done! done! done! I already have the yarn picked out for the next pair. Now I just have to decide if I really want to knit an entire pair of socks in 1×1 ribbing.

Oh… why the hell not…
