Here Knitty, Knitty

I am very excited as Amy Singer, Editor of Knitty.com and author of No Sheep for You will be attending my local knitters guild next month. I am very excited to meet her and see what she has to talk with us about. She has created a great community and wonderful magazine with lovely patterns. It has helped me find many new blogs, patterns, and friends on the forums.

I also finished up the first sock of my latest pair of socks, pictures soon. I doubt I will be able to finish for Socktoberfest, but I am glad I was able to work on a pair thoughout the month.

Socks

These are my latest socks that I knit. They are my basic sock pattern with a waffle stitch patttern on the cuff and top fo the foot. They are knit in the Mountain Colors sock yarn, which is lovely and soft. The colors are completely intoxicating, bold and saturated. I can't wait to pick up more of this yarn soon. Absolutely lovely.

A beautiful voice

Opera lost a beautiful voice this week, and I was even more sad when I learned she was a charming woman and she knit, backstage while she waited to sing. Lovely.
