All I have to show...

Well this weekend a friend came to visit me which was wonderful, the main accomplishment of the weekend was getting my toes done, besides the fumes in the nail place I very much enjoyed a leg message!

Soy Silk & Chitin Sock Yarn

Last night I started a little "swatch" on size 2's and then switched to 1's this morning, much better. It's amazing what a difference needle size can make. Not much progress but I only cast on today and seeing as how I woke up at noon (omg I slept in HECK YES!) I consider this good progress. I want to have a sock to show for it, send me "FO" happy dust and maybe I will get atleast 1 finished sock this week. Oh the yarn is TOFUtsies from SWTC;

50% Superwash Wool
25% SOYSILK brand fiber
22.5% Cotton
2.5% Chitin (made from shrimp and crab shells!)
8 sts = 1"
needles: US 2 (2.75mm)
425m / 100g ball
machine wash and dry

It's very nice yarn, I think it was $16 for the ball from Only Ewe and Cotton Too one of my LYS's.

Lookin good!

A leg massage sounds good.

I'm jealous. I'd love to get my toes done. The sock looks great. I'm also jealous of your sleeping in 'til noon. I haven't done that in about 6 years.

Cute toes...love the yarn too. Glad you got some pampering. :)
