Two down, three pairs of socks, two hand towels and corrected sleeves on Elspeth to go.
And my sock blockers from Leggy Creations are here!
Nifty, huh?
I won’t be covering these with socks. They are going up on the wall!
Angus is not doing well. We are trying a few more things. Betty has been very supportive.

I was very excited to see these at Jimmy Beans. Until I noticed the price tag. They want me to pay HOW MUCH for DPNs that get lost, sat on and broken regularly?! They do come in a collectable tin…
Here’s another video. With dancing. All around the world.
Heard of Knitta? I suddenly have a strange desire to grafitti the town with fiber. Think they’d figure out who did it?
The Amazing Lace: Challenge #5
Can you find the bedspread in this picture?
Hrm. This could double as a belated entry for Challenge #4.
God bless the great state of Alabama. I love it when we make the national news for acts of patriotism perpetrated in birthday suits. Details, anyone?
First, a hurricane sock-in-progress picture.
This isn’t the best picture I took of the sock. I just liked the monkeys.
Second, an actual hurricane-in-progress picture.
Chris has surprised everyone by making it this far. If you are a weather buff, you might want to read more about him here.
And now, a Public Service Announcement.
August is going to be The Month Emily Finishes Things. I will be wrapping up the three pairs of socks I have on the needles (four if you count Squall), finishing the FBS (or making an honest attempt at it anyway) and renewing my vows to the Epic Counterpain. I am going to make at least one bedspread square a week. To facilitate this goal, the only knitting allowed while watching Monk and Psych is bedspread knitting.
With luck, hard work and candy, maybe I will be able to start new projects in September. Like throw pillows. Or a cardigan. Or more socks.
You’ve GOT to be kidding me. M wants one for his birthday.
OK, don’t faint or anything, but I finally made the Alabama Knit-Blogger List. It’s not pretty, but at least y’all can make the buttons go somewhere when you click ’em. If you aren’t on the list and want to be, holler. If you are on the list and shouldn’t be (or don’t want to be), holler. I’ll fix things right up.
UPDATE: So I left off this whole other batch of folks that should have been on the list. And myself. *cries*
