Long time

Wow it has been a long time since I last posted. I have been very busy with my knitting and eating. Knitting good, food bad. At least I have gotten the food under control. I don't want to blow a 50 pound loss. YIPPEE 50 pounds. Very happy.

As for knitting, finished monkey socks (jitterbug yarn), mystery socks (regia, cherry tree hill, and knit picks yarns), vanilla socks for dh (encore), and wicked for me(malabrigo). Started mr greenjeans (jojoland rhythm) and firestarter (jitterbug).

I liked the jitterbug, knitted nice and the color is great. The three yarns I used for the mystery sock were okay, but I don't think that I would be the regia again. Encore wasn't bad, dh really likes them and would make them for him again. Now the malabrigo was the best so far. I want more and more and more. The jojoland is very pretty. Love how the colors change. I think mr greenjeans will look great.




Me and Wicked.




The other great thing that happened is that I was able to knit on the Big Sock. This is a cool project that was started in England in 2006 and has traveled around the world with groups of knitter young and old knitting on it. It is trying to break the worlds record of the largest sock.
