Socks are done

Here are my finished Fluted banister Socks. They are not blocked and may never be so they are a little squished up.

I think they turned out well. I had to frog the toes twice because I did not have enough yarn and did not want to have to order another ball of Sockatta especially since I had lost the band.
Here is Alice, my cat, playing with a cat toy that Brynne made for her. Brynne's blog is located here, www.knit.blogspot.com

I am still blocking the Cabled Tulip sweater and I am knitting a baby hat from Dalgarn that I hope to block tonight. Then I don't want to knit any more baby things.
The weather is blessedly cool and the house has been in the 5os at night.
Only 51 more days until I have my spinning wheel.
I also ordered myself two new tatting books on Monday. Monday was a bad day. I really enjoy tatting but was getting tired of making edgings and little circles. So I hope my new book on inverted tatting and Fancy Pants 2, with advanced techniques will be fun. My tatting class that I want to teach in January is also shaping up.
