Socktober

I decided today that I'm going to participate in Socktober this year! I've been working on a pair of socks for a while now, but they were boring me. Socktober has motivated me to finally finish them up. I'm working on finishing the toe of sock no. 2. I should finish it tomorrow.

I ordered some yarn to use for the Through the Loops Mystery Sock knitalong, and I dug some sock yarn out of the big bag of yarn that Stan's mom gave me (there must have been $100 worth of yarn that she inherited in there!) and decided to start working on some Froot Loop socks. I got sucked in. It's midnight now, and I'm kind of amazed because I hadn't stayed up knitting in such a long time! I'm hoping that Froot Loop will be enough of a challenge to keep me interested. And I'm really excited to see how the mystery sock will knit up in the yarn I ordered (Knit Picks Gloss in Cocoa).

Day one of the haiku project was a success-- I have three new poems!
