Wednesday update

No knitting yesterday, i went to visit Mum and took her to a new (to us) yarn shop where we spent about two hours drinking coffee and rummaging through various baskets of buttons and beads and Mum perused hundreds of patterns looking for tops that aren't designed "for stick insects" as she puts it :oD
I managed to get most of the foot done on Monday though so i have about half an inch before the toe, unfortunately i am out tonight so won't get it finished until tomorrow, possibly Friday cos i'm out tomorrow night too! I really would much rather be knitting than going out, although i will enjoy myself when i'm out i really enjoy watching the sock growing. Is it "sad" or unsociable to want to sit and knit all the time? I am determined to finish it by the end of this week though as i still have a Monkey to start and finish by the end of the month!
This afternoon i am mostly sewing Secret Pal Stuff and other Swap parcel stuff and trying out a new bag design which is turning out to be rather complicated - it shall be the first and last time i make it! Still, i am happy with the result, it's just too fiddly to do all the time, i shal be reverting to my tried and tested method for future bags :o)

Busy social life Franster! But I agree, most of the time I would rather be sat at home knitting :) Your secret pal sounds like they are being thoroughly spoilt!
