(Sigh.) 83 days left.
Did you see Cider Moon's new Louet based sock yarn? I linked it yesterday. I have to wait 83 days. (Sigh) Are you tired of the whining yet?
I took my secret project along with me this weekend, and I have to say I have never ripped and re-knit a project as much as I have this one. I'm just hoping that I can figure it out.
There was progress on the Mad Weave Sock before I left however:
We had a big Lacrosse weekend. Varsity lost (boo), but it was a non-conference game so it won't matter until we have to play them again in the Playoffs. The Freshman/Sophomore team had a round robin tournament on Saturday and they won two out of their three games. The Teen plays in the Attack position and they are shorthanded so he got a lot of playing time on Saturday.
We took a quick spin up to the cabin to make sure it is all in once piece, and it is. My SIL lives up there so we visited and had dinner together. I taught her how to knit over New Years weekend. We bought her first project (a very simple scarf with alternating knit and purl stitches - a 2x2 seed?) I checked up on her progress and she's finished three scarves and a baby blanket!!!
I shipped off my SP10 Pal's second package on Friday - now I'm lurking on her blog to see if she got it!

Hang in there! (What about Mother's Day gifts? Does that count?)
Gorgeous socks!
It's always fun to introduce someone new to knitting! And cabin knitting is the best when it's still cool outside.

Sounds like a busy weekend but I see YOU managed to post a photo. So lovely. Is the SIL stashing yarn yet? That's how you know you've got a real convert. P.S. No Yarnover for me. Too busy with dance stuff. Meh!
(whisper) There's a fundraiser for the American Heart Association on my blog with 5 drawings and at least one will contain said delicious sock yarn from Cider Moon. Just sayin.'
