Dusting off the cobwebs

Filed under: On Needles, Salina — Cyndi at 8:57 am on Tuesday, January 16, 2007

Wow - it’s been a while since I’ve posted. It’s been a while since I’ve had anything worthy of posting! Needless to say, there has not been a lot of knitting happening lately.

I was hoping to wait and post when I finished Salina, but unfortunately, the end of that sweater is not yet in sight. Here’s where I’m at… about 1/3 of the way through the last sleeve. Sleeves take a loooong time to knit! Especially on size 4 needles. I’m not going to be knitting another sweater on size 4 needles any time soon!

Since Salina is one of those seemingly never ending projects, I thought I should start a quick-and-easy pair of socks so that I actually finish something sometime this winter.

This is a plain old 64 stitch stockinette sock on size 1 ebony needles. The yarn is Cherry Tree Hill, in Wild Cherry. It’s not quite as electric pink in person. I started this on Saturday night, and got just past the heel on Sunday. Hopefully I’ll be done with the pair in a week or so, and can get back to the dreaded sleeve.

Ugh, size 4, that is a small size for arms, especially if there’s nothing too exciting about the pattern.

I’m sure you’ll get it finished soon though.

Nice to see you again!

Hello! Nice to hear from you. I can’t wait to see Salina. I feel like I haven’t finished anything in forever - not even socks. Sigh. I keep reminding myself that it’s the process, but I like the product too.
