I realized yesterday that I need to rip back a bit of the red lace and it's knit-on edging. I really do need to follow the pattern since I've never done the knit-on edging thingy before. However, I didn't want to do it, so I did what any sock/lace knitter would do.
I started another project.
This is my usual 2x2 rib sock knit with US 1 rosewood dpns. Very short in the cuff because, in theory, the socks will go live with what's his name. The colorway is Cookie and comes from the fabulous Scout.
The bulb is Susan.
Today is laundry, lace ripping and maybe giving the cat a pedicure.
What?
Y'all should be used to the weirdness by now. It's been two years.
Happy Sunday, everyone.
What's his name would wear socks with pink on them? He is more secure than my what's his name.

Those are cute socks. I have a similar colorway in a different yarn. http://www.ravelry.com/people/PurlingDervish/stash/hand-dyed-sock-yarn
Yes, I am all about putting links in comments today. Oh and I say rip the Icarus and start over with me. :D
Eh. Not weird at all. Now painting your little black and white Chihuahua's nails hot pink when you were doing your nails... that could be a little strange.
WHAT?!?

Very nice Cookie yarn - looks like Neapolitan ice cream, and I love pink and brown together. Hope whatshishame will be appropriately appreciative!!

I could use a pedicure, too. :)

Happy Sunday to you too Cookie.
Love the colorway.
Speaking of color, I must go slap coat one of the paint up on the walls in my bedroom. Hubby was kind enough to prime for me.
We'll be moved back in this week. Yeah!

Those colors are great. Starting a new pair of socks is an excellent decision when you have some lace that is not quite ready to be ripped. I hope the pedicure goes well.

Nothing about those plans seems strange to me ... Nope. Not here.
Did she like her pedicure?

That sock yarn reminds me of those crunchy wafer cookies with the sugary filling.
I pulled ticks off of dogs yesterday, not exactly a cat-pedi but just as much wrestling.

The socks are looking marvey and the color does remind me of Neapolitan ice cream...something a bit different with every post, err, bite. Just like a Cookie. Happy 2nd!
