This year is different from years past because Grandma and Grandpa are here for the entire week and we could not be more pleased! Everyone enjoyed our thanksgiving feast followed by a movie. We went to see Disney's Tangled and we all loved every minute of it. Karolyn was laughing out loud in the theatre, granted so was every other 6 yr old but that is beside the point. The girls are having a great time having grandma read them their bedtime stories and I'm excited cuz I get a break.
I have found a minute to get some knitting done. Just my simple sock pattern. I cast on 68 stitches divided over 2 circular needles (I used US1). Knit a 2x2 rib for about 1.5 inches then switch to st st. Knit in st st for about 1 - 2 inches and then start the short rows for the heel. Once the heel is complete, I knit the length of my foot then short row the toes. I then turn the sock inside out, 3 needle BO, weave in the ends and call it good!
Gauge: good question. I didn't measure it, I just know this works for my foot.
Blocking: are you kidding me? its a sock for the love of God.
Yarn: Regia Stretch color. 7% polyester, 23% polyamid, 70% wool.
