Rapunzel! Let down your hair.

I couldn't wait to get that yarn on the needles ladies, and look what happened with a little luck & effort! I call her Bad Rapunzel.






I am doing the Badcaul pattern and it is working out great! I have changed the pattern up a bit to suit my "sock knitting habits". The yarn is lighter than fingering weight so I used a Sz 2 needles instead of 1 like the pattern calls for. The sock has a great fit and feel... I am very sure this sock will be done by tonight! Can you believe it ONE sock in 5 days, thats a record for me! I think that the second sock should be done by next Monday.....




Other knitting news: Knitalong has voted for their next project and it's something I have wanted to do for awhile, so I will be apart of it. Remember my Leaf Lace shawl I did back in march was for this Knitalong as well.

My sock Posse socks have been put on hold for the time being. I have decided to do it in Jaywalker. I went to visit and have lunch with me friend Martha, and she is in the sock Posse too. Her yarn is very different from mine! go check out her sock! She is doing it in the Mata Hari pattern... It isn't to late to sign up for the sock Posse from Yarntopia!

Picovoli: umm, do I really have to update? I am another inch into it! ughhh! this is taking FOREVER!!!! I guess my heart really isn't into it...

I am starting chris' fathers day gift this week sometime.. Felt Clogs! I think he going to love them ;)

I will update when Bad Repunzel is finished!
