new job

So I started my new job today and i must say right now i am just a tiny bit OVER MY HEAD. I am sure it will all be OK in the end but what have i got myself into.

On the knitting front i am about 75% done with my Twisted flower socks and I cant wait to be done. I love the pattern but the yarn is different from what i am used to and its bugging me plus i have other yarns i so desperately want to get on the needles.

Worst Blogger Ever

And the winner is..... ME.
not much going on here i have been on the sick side for several days and cant even bring myself to knit. I am on the toe of my twisted flower and cant focus long enough to finish it- mostly because its a charted pattern and you have to actually pay attention to it.
I have got some awesome yarn pirate yarn in the last couple days and man i want it on needles i am fighting the urge. I could do jaywalkers or circles by heart or maybe even a basic sock.... some one hold me back

Twisted Flowers and new yarn

So I basically frogged my twisted flower sock and thought I did it for no reason and then realized that I had made a boo boo and now its looking much better. I am toying with not doing the heal and instep in pattern but i am not entirely sure yet its all about comfort really.

I have move past the first round and started the cabling on the second set of 32. I am also questioning my reasoning on ditching the pattern on the heel and instep. I always want to be working on something new... the next project is always right there and I want to start it. Whats next you might ask not even sure right now but I have gotten some great new yarns in the mail this week a really pretty lang jawoll I have never used before from Swap Bots Cosmicsnail. I also bought yarn pirates killer bees.... I think these will be jaywalkers for Tage (my 10y/o Son).

oh what to do what to do.

Cookie A's and a Gryff bag

So Yesterday I finally made my bag for the HSKS 4 swap. Its all done and felted. This afternoon I caught Gizmo stealing it... I really dont know what is with this cat he is such a little thief. I am not sure why but he like to take things and hide them under tages bed this time he didnt make it that far.

Once i finished the bag I casted on a Cookie A's twisted flower. I am moving along now after frogging it for no reason mostlikely last night. I think my biggest problem is I want to see the pattern right away and often times you need to go pretty far into it before it starts to go. I know I dont have much done yet but this is not going to be a fast moving sock. I have decided that I dont like Graphs I would much prefer words written out.

I will tell you cookie's patterns have to be some of the prettiest things out there. Enough that I am even willing to buy them.hahah normally I stick to the free patterns. I actually bought two more last night and she has a killer collection coming out the end of this month
