checking gauge is for suckers

And I am apparently not a sucker. I'm not quite sure this sock will fit me--same pattern size as my last one, but very different yarn. Oh wells. If nothing else, I have a sister with small feet.

 

I got quite a lot done during the evening session of Stake Conference today, and I'm hoping to get even more done tomorrow. I don't mind the three hours sitting in church at all; I often wish church was a lot more listening and knitting and a lot less herding six-year-olds. Sigh.

Lynx is way too cute.

sock it to me!

 

I finished a sock! I really should be working on things for my etsy shop, but I've been knitting socks instead.

I finished this one and started another. The pattern is Cakewalk Socks, since I wanted more handknit socks for less work.

And my cat is sleeping with her head squished on a pop tart box, because she's like that.

I'm not dead, I promise

Man, what a downer of a post to leave my blog on for months and months!

 I don't feel like doing a full 2012 goals recap, but suffice to say that I've actually started my Etsy shop now, so my days are filled with more knitting than I'd ever imagined they would be! Nothing much to show for it yet, as far as being in the shop--like with everything, I'm great at being motivated to start new things, and rubbish at actually seeing them through to the end. Getting stuck at 96% for weeks because I can't bring myself to do an hour of finishing work is the story of my life lately. Alas.
