Tiger looks a bit annoyed, doesn't he? Well, trust me, he's not the only one! After getting most excellent individual instruction at my Sunday afternoon knitting group [thanks again, Aimee!] , I was ready to get back to the heel turn that night. Everything was going well, but somehow someway I made a mistake. Oh oh. Back track. Start again. Oh oh. Back track. Oh oh. Dropped a damn stitch. Oh oh. There's another one. Arrghh. Start frogging back a bit. Who am I kidding? There is no way I can get those fat fuzzy stitches back onto my size 0 dpns. Forgetaboutit. So, as you see in the evidence above, the 12 inch leg is now back into ball form. Pffffttt.
So...I've started again, only this time with a yarn that I think I'll like knitting with much better. Knit Picks Essential. In black. Of course. Doh. For this great charity! - Socks for Soldiers. Which can be found on Ravelry, too --- here. :) AND btw, the military branches are phasing out the black socks, so, don't be saying you can't knit with black yarn. Next pair, grass green! :)
