Sea Silk!
Last night I got lots of work done on my sock, only about 1 inch to go and then I can turn the heel. I wish this sock yarn photographed better. You can't really see all the pretty deep aqua, it just doesn't photograph that color correctly, but the brown-gold looks about right.
Meet Waldo!
My husband got me an iPod! I have an old shuffle and it doesn't do very well with audio books. I'm going to give my shuffle to the friend I am staying with in Maryland. I think she will like it! I call him Waldo because engraved on the back is "nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm" which is a Ralph Waldo Emerson Quote.
A big motivating factor in getting waldo is to keep myself more amused durring workouts. I was at the gym 1.5 hours yesterday, and I feel great! I do get extra grumpy around 11pm on workout days because my body says, GO TO SLEEP, but my mind says BLOG BLOG BLOG!
Sea Silk with freakin vitamin E!! I followed a few blog links to here and simply didn't have the willpower to say no. I could not be expected to resist yarn in a color-way called "Nova Scotia".
You can buy it here for a wee $33.
Oh and guess which long-time-knitting-blogger just got engaged?

oooh, sea silk!! I've admired that on other blogs. I didn't buy any because I never know what to do with one (or two) skein of anything. Can't wait to see what you make with it.

Thanks for the link to the ebay store--it's still active, still cheaper than most and I just bought some sea silk from it in a color that is perfect and doesn't seem to be available anywhere!
