So I finished the Quant rather quickly and but haven't gotten around to posting about it. I didn't have any issues as it turns out - I just thought I had! Not enough sleep I guess :-P Anyhow, it turned out wonderfully, especially after being blocked (this is definitely a project that needs blocking). (picture coming soon)

Lately I've been fighting with the Back to Basics Socks pattern from Knitty. In Seattle back in November, I'd purchased some sock yarn that Erik really liked but I'd been unsuccessful in my search for a simple sock pattern. Until I saw Back to Basics on Knitty. I knew it was the perfect pattern. The only drawback is knitting on such small needles for the first time (size 2) - it's kind of hard on the hands. Also this is the first time I've knit toe up socks AND the first time I've knit with two circulars at once. Lots of firsts, considering this is my second pair of socks!

Other projects I'd like to start soon: Caliormetry, garter for the wedding.

Hello! This is Sophia from the 198 Countries Peace Project. I just wanted to let you know that while I appreciate your enthusiasm in choosing two countries, the United States has already been taken. If you'd still like to do two, please review the list again and choose another.

Thanks,
