Day 26

                                                                        Greetings

             A Wee Rant

Ok, first a little rant. I am really hating the issues I am having with my phone. I think that the battery is dying as now it won't charge at all. There goes photos for a while. Sorry guys. Which really sucks, because I would love to show you the progress on the sock I am knitting!

Also, I was really getting into my Instagram! Now that's on hold again.

I am just really over not having any consistency with photos and the blog I really do apologize to those who actually read this blog. 
Okay, rant over.

                                                                     W.I.PS

So I am working on my first ever sock, working toe-up. To me, I never started to try socks because circular needles intimidated me, also knitting the toe and heel also intimidated me, but now I am like what was I so intimidated about. I am loving this tutorial from Dana, honestly, if you have never knit socks before check out #SockVirgin on Facebook. Here is the sign-up link. I wish I could show you my gauge as well for the socks, my gauge was perfect! I even washed and blocked said gauge and even though I thought I had made a mistake by throwing it in the drier (whoops!) it was luckily still in the delicate-bag so it didn't felt. In fact it came out looking exactly the same as when it went in the washer. It does feel a bit weird though throwing a small swatch/gauge into the washing machine.

Still working away on Logan's scarf. I think I am almost done with it. Well I am kind of hopeful that it's almost finished. I'd love nothing more than to be done with it already, I am honestly not feeling the love. But I am letting it guilt me, I haven't put it in the W.I.P bin it's sitting on my chair. Ready and waiting. Stupid thing.

                                                       On Other News

I've started filming my first Vlog, which I will upload to Youtube. I will keep you posted on when it's released. Well it's in the process of being filmed. It's not going to be a long one, I aim on doing a 15 minute introduction video.  

                                            Socks, Socks, Socks

So as I have been sitting here, working round after round on my socks. Which just look beautiful by the way, that yarn I purchased is just like a little piece of heaven to me. I've been wondering, how many socks can I knit in a month? Don't worry I am not setting a challenge for August, because I want to finish off my knitting goal first. But come Socktember September or Socktober October I will set a mini challenge for myself I think.  You know what that means?? Oh no, I will have to toddle off to the yarn shop over the hill and buy more yarn! What a catastrophe. I have to be careful though, I don't want to be over-zealous and catch second-sock-itis, that's a real thing you know. I wonder if I can convert my best-friend-who-happens-to-be-a-knitter-too to knit socks? I mean when you first learn things it can be very daunting. But I can't say I see whats to be feared of these socks anymore. I even want to rent out the sock a-la-carte book out and actually use it!

Oh I also need to order a sock blocker online. They don't sell them in any yarn store I've ever been in.  Or I can make one using wire. I think I will do that using this tutorial. Don't you just love the internet? It has almost anything on it.
