Pictures!!!

Here are the teacher appreciation socks... I finally remembered to have my camera on hand when I finished something!! Ignore the date at the bottom... I am sort of hopeless with electronics (yet you work in radio and they put you in charge of automation... hmmmm...). The yarn is simple stripes sweet tarts from knitpicks using my basic sock pattern. This is my fourth pair of socks. Try to ignore that they match everywhere except the heel and the toe. It pisses me off - and I don't understand how it happened!! If the yarn is striping nicely in the second sock the way it did in the first sock how the hell do you end up different suddenly?!? Oh well. I was going to take a sock-break for awhile to try to get over it but then I acidentally cast on for the Knitpicks Simple Stripes Fair Isle socks.

I've almost finished the cuff now - this picture was taken Thursday night. I'll post more picks tomorrow (now that I've taken the time to figure it out!!) This is my cat Serena, she reeeeeealllllly likes it when I'm knitting. So far she has not managed to eat anything important but she feels she should be involved with all knitting in the house. Here she is helping me read the pattern. My husband is behind her - I think it was actually a conspiracy to get me to stop knitting and pay attention to both of them. Serena likes it when we are both in bed watching TV and she can sit in me for awhile and then move over to him for awhile and then move back to me.

This is Serena thirty seconds after I took the last picture. See what I mean? Doesn't this just SCREAM "cuddle me"?

Don't be fooled. She bites and she drools.
