Oh yeah, and sometimes I eat a bit =) But the former 3 seem to be all I do lately. The sleeping is real nice. After having such a hard time sleeping for so long, it's such a relief to be able to relax into sleep.The knitting is nice, too. I didn't realize I could finish a pair of socks that fast. I really like these. They look a little similar, but different. They are very comfy and that's what's important.
You can I've cast on for pair number 3. There were only 10 stitches on the needles in this picture, but now, I'm very well along into the
first cuff.I would like the start my second sock some where close to the same spot as these since it's a self striping yarn. One of the Knit Picks variety. I don't recall the name or even the color. I've had it in a ball waiting to be knit for like a year and a half, at least. Too long. It's a little rough on the hands now that I've gotten used to the bamboo stuff, but these yarns always soften up greatly once washed. (as you all know, so why did I bother to say so? hmmm?)
Well.... we'll see how I keep up the pace. I would like to at least start pair number four this month. That'll be a serious record for me. I don't think I've knit 4 pairs in 6 months before! The weird thing is, you'd think I'd be getting tired of making socks, but it seems to be the reverse. I won't be able to keep up this pace forever, but I can see me making lots more that I have been.
Yaay for Socktoberfest!
ps - I accidentally posted this on my old blog, too. OOPS

But knitting is knitting, is it not! I found myself making more and more small items to more pressed for time/energy I got. Probably because it felt like I was achieving something, even if it took me three months to knit 1 pair of socks!
Your socks look great! See that is what I need to do is focus, I'm having problems doing that lately though.
