Living the Home Life

Socks and Sicky

{ 09:24, 2007-Feb-17 } { Posted in Crafting } { 0 comments } { Link }

After a few weeks of feeling crummy and catching every bug coming down the pike, I woke up yesterday hardly able to swallow, and digging at a rash, so I finally broke down and went to the doctors.  I have mono, for the second time, so I guess I'll get plenty of downtime for knitting now.  Hopefully dh and ds will be up to keeping the house running while I recouperate.

The more exciting news is, I have gotten to the point of turning the heel on my sock.  L was very helpful, bringing out socks that she knitted, and one in progress, along with helping me visualize my pattern.  When I first looked at it, I couldn't figure out how it would work, but apparently, it really is right, and I'm just a little slow.  I also started another pair of socks while I was waiting for help with this one.  The new pair is oatmeal colored alpaca with dark brown cuff, heel, and toe.  As I feel up to it, I'll keep you posted on my sock progress.  Maybe the mono is a blessing in disguise (yeah, right.)

Until next time, keep on knitting, and spinning, and cooking and cleaning, and chasing kids...
