Bad News

I ordered Book 5 by JO Sharp last week and found out the website I ordered from is out of stock and won't send it for a week or 2 more! I guess it gives me time to finish my sock, but I was really looking forward to using my Silkroad DK Tweed that I bought a few years ago and lost the pattern to. I guess I'll have to wait a bit longer. :(

The Heel Hath Turned

The heel hath turned and here's the picture. Yea I realized after I took the picture that you can't really see the heel, but give me a day or two and it will probably be finished.

After I find my camera's SD card I'll update my plant pictures.

Back to the old knit and purl...

I've recently been sucked back into the world of knitting by a friend of mine who wanted to learn how. So after teaching her the basics, casting on, knit and purl and starting her off on a ribbed scarf, I went home to search for my old robe I had started but never came close to finishing.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find the pattern.

I've ordered a new pattern that uses the same yarn, JO Sharp Silkroad DK Tweed. Its a cute sweater from JO Sharp called Freya.

Well pending the book with the new pattern coming in I started a pair of socks since I had all the tools on hand, no need to spend any money! And here's where I am so far...

And I only started yesterday! My favorite part is that the yarn is self striping, yep that's right self striping, be sure to take another look.

More to come soon on how my plants are fairing and how the heel hath turned.
