Summer

Despite my best efforts the end of the school year managed to steal any time and ambition I once possessed.

The downside to all of that was I didn't spend any time here.
The upside of it all, I've still been knitting lots of fun stuff.

I'm currently in the middle of a sock knitting class through Loopy Yarns.

Its been a blast so far and I only have the body of the foot and the toe to finish up. Only one more class to go!

I've decided to actually knit something for myself for once and picked out a lovely bright orange color. Nice and easy to spot in my soon to be over flowing sock drawer.








The cuff and tube of the sock.











After I knit the heel flap and turned the heel. You can also see the second sock I started and put on holding needles.





I'm very excited to finish up. I already have a beautiful skein of green yarn that my husband picked out for his socks. We got in our recent trip to New York. Pictures to come soon! I was able to check out some really fun stores there!

In addition to the New York trip I also am starting a sweater knitting class in the beginning of June. Post and pictures to follow.

Lots of new project and skills learning. It's going to be an exciting summer!!
