Knitting Content

Here is my progress on DomiKNITrix's little red ridding hoodie. Fast Easy knit. I love it I needed something mindless and this fit the bill. I am using Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride Bulky in M075 Spice. It is a deep red color since I am not too big into the cherry red and it is a perfect color for me. I love and cannot wait to be done with it but alas I do have to work on my Socapalooza Four socks too and I am out of yarn. I am waiting for more to come in hopefully it is close to same dye lot. Let's keep our fingers crossed.
Now.........

My Sockapalooza four socks. I think they are really cute. I am using Claudia's Handpainted in John B. The picture doesn't do it much justice as it is a very deep fall deserty colorway. Mauves, plums, greens, burnt oranges, and some brown tones. As you can see I have just turned the heel on sock 1 and am about to do the gusset. It is quick to knit I am doing a faux eyelet rib type pattern and it is wicked stretchy. OMG did I just use wicked I have lived in Maine too long. Holy cow that is such a New England term. Time to move.

Ok well that is all the knitting I am currently doing. My HP socks are done but I still cannot get stitch markers that I love I have made about 40 different ones and just haven't hit the right combo yet. Hopefully after I get back from NJ. Yes I am making another trip this weekend. I am leaving Friday to return Monday or Tuesday. So check out the new camera bag I got. It's so cute it looks like a little purse. Lana thinks it is her little purse. I have to hid it or she steals it from me. Mine.

Now my foray into gardening. I do not garden. I am not good at gardening. Plants hate me and they commit suicide around me. But I love them and I do try. So I have been dying for some lavender. I had to have some Lavender. So what do I get. A neat lavender hybrid type thing that doesn't have to be planted outside. I can keep in the house during the harsh Maine winter and hopefully it will survive. I also got Punky Violet Moon Tourein type thing that I hope to hang in my kitchen window. I don't know why but the picture just won't show up no matter what I do.

Ok off for now I have to go pack and get some stuff done and some sleep. Be back Monday or Tuesday.
