blog-stalking

I have to admit, I just don't know how they do it. I am doing well to keep a couple of projects on the needles, and still find time to pay attention to my hubby (who regularly accuses me of being married to my yarn and just having a fling with him). I cannot imagine how much time it takes to keep those blogs running with enough yarn p*rn and WIP's to satisfy the demanding public. Please tell me your secrets, pretty blog people!!!

ARRGGHH!!!

I have been working on the butterfly socks from the 2nd Chicks with Sticks book and I am about halfway through the second sock. I got all the way through the cuff and finished my 3rd butterfly (or so I thought), transferred all of my instep and heel sts to their respective needles, started knitting the heel flap and.........realized that I still had 4 more rounds to go on the butterfly before I could move to the heel!!! I can't just keep going because I worked my first sock correctly so the second one will be too short!

My only comfort is that I just placed a huge KnitPicks order (my first!!! Yea!!!!!) and I bought the patterns for both Wicked and Sahara to be done with my beautiful KP stash! *sighs* I think I am in love........

OK....let's try this

This is my first foray into the whole blog thing. I love to play online and stalk other people's blogs so I decided to take the leap and do it myself. Oh, well. I guess we shall learn together.
