I actually finished a pair of socks!

Hooray I finished 1 pair of socks during Socktoberfest! Dsc01064 I’m so proud of myself! I wore them around all evening! They are simple socks from Cat Bordhi’s circular needle sock book. They yarn is from Spunky Eclectic in a color called leaf litter. And boy does it look like the leaves blowing around here!.

Although I only knit 3 socks during Socktoberfest, I did enhance my sock knitting stash a fair amount! Dsc01067  I still have a couple of skeins of Socks that Rock coming too!  I plan on starting my Jaywalkers with some Lisa Souza yarn tonight….Berry Poppins is the color.

I’m still moving along with my newest sweater Abigail from Knit PicksDsc01061_1I have about 10 inches done.  Also I plan on casting on for the other sleeve to my Ribbi Cardi.  I’m feeling the need to get that done and worn.  I’m still debating on what/who I’m going to knit for this Christmas.  I don’t think I’m going to do much this year.  I may knit something for my Dad..a scarf perhaps, and maybe for my mom.  I was thinking about making a baby blanket (a very simple one) for my Bro and his wife who are expecting.  But I don’t know about that yet! (I am making a quilt for them for the baby shower) Plus I make about 30 ornaments for family and friends every year!  I’m making a cute little snowman bell this year.

OH and speaking of quilts, I just got a kit for Whiteout!  Whiteout I just thought it was such a cool pattern!  I cannot wait to start that one.

I did make it to sit and knit at Birds of a Feather.  I was bummed becasue I knew that Jeanne couldn’t make it.  I was hoping to meet up with her.  I had fun, but wasn’t sure which of the 2 tables I should have sat at.  Anyway, I’m hoping to make it back again soon, but I know I can’t this week.

Saturday night I went to See Barenaked Ladies, in Downtown Cleveland.  We had awesome seats.  They were on the floor but on the aisle so we weren’t squished or anything!  It was a great time!

I guess that’s about all the excitement here for now!  Trick or Treat tomorrow, and Parent teacher conferences on Thurs.  So a busy week!
