Hey Good Looking...


So here is the lace sock that has been giving me fits beyond belief as of late. In this picture it is 5.5" long and I was about to start shaping the leg.. since the picture was taken I've already done another 1.5" or so of knitting.
I really like this sock... and the pattern.. It's fun doing a lace pattern.. and I like using the circular needle and using the Magic Loop method... I'm nervous though about what I will need to do when I get to the heel and need to start working on that. I've only made heels when I was knitting on douple pointed needles (dpns). My knitting group friends though have promised that they will help me figure it out..
In other news... Christmas is getting closer and I am so not prepared at all. Presents still need to be bought... at least our cards are all set now.. I just need to print off the letters and pick up the photo cards. Print the labels and mail them out... oh wait.. I need to buy stamps too..
I just found out that my brother is coming home this year for Christmas... I can't wait to see him.. He didn't come home last year and he was truly missed. At least by me... since I can't speak for anyone else in the family. I can't wait to see the reactions that Anna and Lily have when they meet Uncle Dave again. The last time that they saw him they were 7 months old and that was almost 2 years ago. They might be a little hesitant at first but I'm sure that they will warm up quickly to him. Everyone loves Uncle David.
