The count down for Vegas begins ladies and gentlemen!!! On Saturday it will be a week away and there is so much to do! I need to go shopping for some decent clothing ( I tend to wear mine to death), I need to get my hair cut, buy toiletries, find a suitcase....all that good stuff. Me and Rob are super excited and it couldn't come at a better time. Work has been the dumps, 10 hours of mandatroy overtime has really taken a toll on me and I could use the relaxation of a vacation. Me and my girlfriends are going up to Maine this weekend to Old Orchard Beach, so that is even more relaxation! Christinas mother owns a house on the strip and I love waking up early and looking for sand dollars at low tide, it is like a treasure hunt! And the smell of the beach, omg it is incredible. I don't know what it is but it just puts me completely at ease and after all the stress this week I could use it.
In knitting news I have started my first "toe up" sock on two circular needles and it is coming out pretty good so far, but I think I messed up when I was changing rows and now the needles feel funny in my hands.....hope that wont matter later when I am doing the heel....
It is a figure 8 cast which is easy to do, but it feel a little uncomfortable when you first start because it is loose so you have to be careful of you tension. But once you get past the first couple rows and start your increases it isnt that bad, as long as you know how your needle goes ( I started over like 3 times!) This is what I have so far.....
I hope the pattern comes out nice.....like I said I already messed up =(..I will be working on it on the way to Maine so I will have more pics on monday =)
