Nornir

Sock Madness Round Two is whipping me hard. I have decided that this sock is the reincarnation of Audrey II. No matter how much yarn I feed it, it just wants more.

Sock Madness Supporters Socks


Whew ! One down. One to go. My finger is sore. I really need to learn to not push with my left pointer finger. Or I could learn to knit the Continental style. Or even better, the Finnish style. It seems those incredible Finnish knitters have all the speed.
So here is my Steelers Colors Supporters Sock number one.

Now for a cup of coffee, a bathroom break, then back to knitting the mate.

It looks a bit like a bumblebee. Doesn't it?

I'm In?

Both of the Talia's Wings socks are done. Here is the proof. Two unblocked socks on two very hairy legs. The son thinks it is really funny to pose for me. From the looks of this photo, he is right.
Oddly, I made it through round three of Sock Madness. I cannot figure out how that happened. I took Monday off to spend the day being drugged and going through an MRI. I needed the drugs to dull the pain while laying still in a tube that pounds, beeps, whistles, chirps, grunts, gasps, burps, and drums. Why do MRI's make so much noise? After it was finished I spent the rest of the afternoon and evening in a stupor. It was a good thing they did not let me have my dpn's in there. Not enough room. The cousin suggested googles but I could not find any. I would have liked a photo of that though.

Right now I am enjoying really warm weather along with relaxing between contest rounds. For someone who is not competitive, why did I sign up for this?

It must be insanity.
