I know. I know.
I'm supposed to be talking about goals since it's Sunday. I'm also supposed to be doing laundry, reading, and doing a math test for school. There are a lot of supposed to's today. But I'm not really wanting to do any of them. Honestly, I just want to watch Tiger play golf and knit on my new sock.
I cast on yesterday for a Charade sock from I May Be Knitting A Ranch House. A very clever pattern that's easy to memorize and shows off varigated yarn nicely.
This is the start of my Charades in merino cashmere from The Knittery. This is the orchid colorway. I know Sheri has this yarn at The Loopy Ewe and it is positively delicious! It's soft and fuzzy without losing stitch definition. And the color. OH! The color!!!! I love how it looks in the skein. I love how it looks in the ball. And I really love how it's knitting up.
I was able to cast on a new sock because I finally finished my Chevron Scarf!
Pattern: Chevron Scarf from Last Minute Knitted Gifts
Yarn: Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock- 1 skein each of Vera and Devon
Needles: Addi Turbo Size 5
Started: 3/24/2007
Finished: 8/11/2007
I have the fixin's for a couple more of these. I really hope they don't take me 5 months each to finish.
This one lagged on the needles for awhile. It's one of those things were I got tired of it but really liked it at the same time. Finally, I just had to get off of my butt and knit!
Finally, I'd like to thank Jen over at Piddleloop for giving me an honorable mention as a Rockin' Girl Blog! Jen, you made my day!!!

I love the Charade pattern too - just enough to make it look a little "fussy" - but easy to memorize. And your scarf - it's beautiful - great color choices! And you do rock!
Ooh, the yarn is gorgeous! I can't wait to try some of that for myself.
I don't like golf, but my husband has been watching all weekend. Weird to think it's actually taking place a mile from my house!
well of course cause you rock. and you rock some tastey beer!
