Back to Knitting

Thank you everyone for your kind, kind words and wishes for my health. I laid off the Zumba yesterday and stayed home for dinner with a bunch of tween boys having a nerf battle (!!!)

I am taking your advice and even as I feel much better,  I am not pushing myself too hard, so I don't relapse. I saw the kid sneezing, again this morning ...

We are at the edge of September and I have a few finished object photos for you:


Remember this lace shawl? I finished the knitting a while ago, but I finally blocked it (hot spam I didn't think that would happen!) You guys weren't kidding when you said it would grow when I soaked it.




The Entrechat! (only one button, so I knew this one would get done, no hot spam or damn for anyone). Super cute and fun construction.



I have progress on my sock!! I was this far when I ripped it out, almost to the toe, I feel good about this. I do. It looks so much better than the first time around.

I'm hoping to shape the toe and finish off this sock tonight! Then we can see if my proportions worked out.

Happy Friday my friends.
