This week has been CRAZY!!!!! Adam and Linds got here on Wednesday and my days have been a whirlwind since! But you can read about our travels on my other blog....
So this week I cast on 2 different projects...one pair of socks for my friend Michelle's birthday (which is tomorrow), and pedicure socks for Jenn, Linds, and I when we get our peds later this week. I found very cute sock yarn for both and started right away. Then Friday, Hazel spit up on the red sock yarn for Michelle's socks...so I frogged those. I'll figure out how to wash the yarn and use it for a different project. So she may not get her present till next month...
Then I cast on for the ped socks and got distracted by making my brother's juggling toys and made one for him (I'm going to make 3) and then I made one for Hazel since she wanted to play with his. So I got 2 balls done and started working on the ped socks again, when, Adam stated (while we were out and about on Saturday) that his head was really cold and he wished he had brought a sock cap...so of course I started that project Saturday night when we got home. I should be done with it this afternoon, that way he'll atleast have it for 1/2 his visit. Then, hopefully, I will be able to get the ped socks done before our pedicures this Thursday...I'm not holding my breath, though!
I think the ravelympics sounds so fun! What project are you thinking of doing? I have a shirt I want to make Linds for christmas that I could do, or I thought of trying something for my mom for her birthday in September. The other thing I thought of doing was knitting 1 swatch a day for 15 days, making them rather large swatches and all different stitch types, and then stitching them together as making it a blanket for Hazel's 1st birthday. I don't know if I'll actually sign up for the event, especially as we'll be traveling so much during that span and I won't be able to knit while I drive (although, if you can figure out how, that would be fantastic) but I thought it would be fun to knit along to see what I'm capable of, and joining next year!
