Okay, I have been knitting but I am not ready to show pictures of them. I have finally turned the heel of my Jaywalker after several discussions with my short rowed heel. It just did not want to cooperate with me.
I have also started my lace pattern for my Falling Leaves sock. This is the sock pattern that I am knitting for Sockapooolza or at least I am giving it a test run. I will let you know after I get a lace repeats in the sock if the yarn colors and the pattern will work together.
But in the search for the perfect sock yarn, I have added some new sock yarns to my ever growing stash of sock yarns. I ordered some
Zen sock yarn and Claudia's sock yarn from kpixie.com. I must say that
shipping is extremely prompt and I am loving the yarn colors. I have pinks in the Zen Garden and the color freesia in the Claudia's. And I was able to persude one of the Buddhas in
my collection to pose and to recline amid the wonderful yarns.
And just for fun, I am inclluding a photo of me from my class on Saturday when we were testing hydrant pressures. Yeah, a fun thing to do on a cold and windy Saturday is play with cold
water ;)
(And the guy in the white jacket is not only the instructor but he is also my chief. And he is a really nice guy on top of everything else.)
Wow, I absolutely love the sock yarn you got yourself, what an amazing colorline! Can't wait to see the pictures of your progress of the last days!
Have fun knitting, and best wishes from Austria!

Is't the Claudia's yarn nice!
Well, all I can say is quack quack... puddle ducks love even cold water. It looks like so much fun. :)
