Been Crazy!

With the first week of November sneaking up on me I've been unable to dutifully post all of my wonderful pictures of the package Tia sent me as well as of the package that Pen sent me from the Football swap. I'm a bad blogger, no cookie!

Luckily, I have had time to complete a few projects: 1 Blueberry Waffle Sock, 1 roll brim hat for my nephew (if 4 days--I'm feeling very good about this one), and a cabled newsboy hat for my sister. I'm bound and determined to get pictures of all of these to post but with enrolling in school, looking for a new job and working at my current job have made my life a little hectic. I'm hoping to make a list (they rock) and get my rear in some kind of gear!

More later...

Cast On

Just cast on for the Cabled Newsboy Cap last week and it is coming along nicely. I'm using the magic loop method which I really enjoy--can't wait to try that out on socks as well as trying two socks on two circs. Luckily I think I may have enough sock yarn to last me...especially since I just bought my first skein of Socks That Rock in the Little Bunny Foo Foo colorway--so excited!

Check out my first pair of socks!! They are short and small (I have size 5 feet) and these babies have given me the sock bug. My feet shall never be cold again.

And check out these little football stitch markers I made for my Football Along partner--I had to make some for myself too!

Clay is fun! It doesn't smell like the Play-Doh I used to play with, plus I get to put them in the oven to bake (like a big kid).

Ravelry!

Yea!!! I just got my ravelry invite and I'm up and running. If anyone would like to be a friend over there please give me a holler (cause I love friends:)). Over there my id is krisknit.
