It's getting hot in here
So on friday or saturday I got a call from an old knitting friend, Tammy. I havn't gotten to see Tammy in a while and she was heading over to Only Ewe and Cotton too which is about 30 minutes from my house. So what the heck, I figured I might as well go for it. After all, who wouldn't want to knit on the worlds biggest sock? Or it's something like that, I havn't kept up with the it but the AKG is taking it around town and I think it started in Europe. I think it's going to be in a record book. I'm too lazy to research it at the moment but I contributed a bit and got to put my name in the book.
I had a super cute photo of Tammy knitting on it, but it went poof when I dragged and dropped it into flickr, and it's not in the trash either which really weirds me out. I've never "lost" a photo before. The sock is freakin huge, I think you could fit 10 people in it, I am curious to see it when it gets to the heel, which seems to be a bit of a ways off. There was a great turn out at Only Ewe and Cotton Too (Alpharetta, GA).
I finished up the body on the Chromatic Cardi, and I was in search of DPN's to finish the sleeves with, but I couldn't find any at home, and the yarn store only had 8" ones which are way to long, and then I ran by micheals to pick up a frame order and okay they had like 2 different sizes in DPN's, wtf?! I grabbed some Moda Dea "Dream" so I could get some instant gratifiation and knit a cute hat to match all the pink clothing we have recieved. A girl has to have a matching hat. With this weather though, who NEEDS a hat??
Looks like I'll have to magic loop the sleeves.
Do you spot that cute little box bag in the right hand corner? Yup thats the same pattern that Wendy has, except I don't think she got the cute box bag, which has been attached to me from the day it arrived in the mail. It fits my knitting notions and my small projects. Check out Wendys blog for more info.
