Who's the Boss?

 

I'm the boss, that's who. The boss of my knitting. I fought with these two-on-one needle socks all afternoon but I won. I gave up and walked away twice. It was one thing after another.  It started with the wrong needles-no slide. You need plenty of slide when you've got two on the same needle. Then it was the wrong size needle-too tight. Then it was the wrong length of cable. After I got the needles right I got the rib count wrong. One stupid thing after another but it's all good now.



In my defense I had this going on just a few feet away. 



The Mister was demolishing the tile in the foyer and downstairs landing and lucky me....there's only room for one to maneuver in such a small area so he was on his own for a change. Usually I'd be slinging the hammer and chisel right along with him but this time around I just got to watch. I doubt I am going to get a free pass when the tile goes down so I'm making the most of my spare time.

  1. I've never knit socks like that! If it were me, I would have taken a LONG break from any renovations!!
