CGOA ready to go

I am ready to mail off the 2 binders containing my swatches and my answers to a bunch of questions. I can't believe I'm finally ready to mail them off. Yesterday while reviewing my work, I realized I did one of the swatches incorrectly. Then I realized I didn't answer all of the parts to one of the questions. Boy am I glad I went over everything one last time. It will go in the mail tomorrow and arrive at CGOA with only a few days to spare.

Finally....the last swatch is done

I just finished the last swatch I need to do for CGOA. It's pinned to my ironing board to cold water block it a bit. The CGOA gives you a year to finish the requirements for the Basic Stitches coures. I procrastinated for a long time doing other projects and not really starting it. Now I have until October 27th to finish everything and send it in. This is the last of the swatches, yeah ! ! ! !

Socks of Doom - Part Deux

I received the unfinished socks from my target's target's target Robin, early last week. Early this morning, I finished the Socks of Doom. I was a few yards short of yarn to finish the toes so I searched my stash and came up with the yellow sock yarn I used for the toes. The socks are destined for Australia tomorrow morning on the way to work. I also picked up a Michigan magnet to include in the package. Now I just have to write a quick note and wrap it all up.

ISE3 scarf for my pal

Here's a picture of the scarf so far. It's about 64" long. I want it to be at least 72" long not including the fringe.

Round 2

Round 2 of Sock Wars has begun for me. I received the socks in the mail from Robin. She's my target's target's target. Robin hadn't gotten very far on her socks but I was easily able to pick up and continue knitting. Hopefully, I'll have a few days to work on them before a pair of deadly socks lands in my mailbox.
