I got to knit this weekend and my Tivo is EMPTY! I'm caught up on my TV and I have nothing to watch now! I wish I could read and knit... (sigh!)
My feet will be warm this winter with some yummy socks! These are just Plain Jane toe-up socks knit on US 2 needles. Knit Picks was really generous with their Simple Stripes yarn. It is a shame that it has been discontinued. I love this color way!
Also! Nymphadora got a new dress last night! I stayed up until 2 to get this finished and photographed. It still needs to be blocked, but I really wanted to see it on her.
She looks like a cute little pumpkin! Perfect for Halloween!
The pattern is the Lace Leaf Dress from Den of Angels. I knit it in Jawoll Cotton that I picked up at the Simpatico Yarns Firecracker Sale (I think).
When that was finished, I still had about half an SVU left to watch, so I cast on my next pair of socks, River Rapids Socks from Sockbug.I gotta run... again! It is discount vaccination day and we have to take Rocky, Erik's dog, to get his shots.

Your socks look lovely! So does Dora's (mind I call her that?) dress.
Being able to read and book and knit at the same time would be awesome. I have a few books I'm in the middle of - including Hitchhiker's Guide - but I've been spending more time knitting. I thought about books on audio or whatnot, but it's just not the same.
