Getting ready for the January knitalong.
These are going to be....wait for it....wait....socks! Where you surprised? Nah, probably not. http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/spanish-dancer-socks.
The kal is for the solidsockknitters group on Ravelry...http://www.ravelry.com/groups/solidsocks. The theme in January is black/white/grey and this is what I had. A nice worsted weight that should knit up quickly. I don't have many solid colors in fingering weight that I can use for this group.
But I do like having the knitalongs because it gives me a deadline to work with.
Just staying home tonight (which is actually what I've always done on New Years' Eve because I don't really care to go out anyway) in my pink jimjams with polar bears and penguins (I'm quite the fashion-plate!) with a pot of Trader Joe's Candy Cane green tea ...peppermint with vanilla...so good and my knitting. Right now I'm working on this....http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/supernova-pullover. I am almost finished with the back so it's moving right along. I'm using Lion Brand Fisherman's Wool and I just love the color.
Well, I hope that everyone has a blessed and safe New Years and happy knitting!

Thanks. I love knitting socks. I only wish that I had more feet so I could wear more at the same time!
