My status on the Lacy Ribs (pattern from the book) right now is slow but steady. I am almost done with the 2nd socks' cuff. I have around 3 inches left and hope to finish them tonight. Here's a photo from earlier in the week:
Not the best, but I hope to make the finished photo a little bit better. The yarn is Yarn Pirate in the Rum Runner colorway. It was a booty club color and I'm really happy to be using it. First, because it looks great, but also because I need to use up some of the stash in a big way.
The second sock is also a stash-buster. The yarn is Zauberball in the Tropical Fish colorway. The pattern is the Sprucy Lucy and is available for free on Wendy's blog. Unfortunately, this sock is at the same place as is pictured below:
Luckily, that is the 2nd sock, so there is some hope of getting that to the heel tonight and finished tomorrow.
In spinning news, I'm attempting to spin an hour every day for the next few weeks that I am off. Right now, I am spinning some Lorna's Laces Wooltop in Envy and hope to get it done and plied tonight. Tomorrow, pictures of hanspun (fingers crossed)
