~ Jul 3rd ~

Much progress has been made on the lovely Back-to-School vest, however.......if you will look closely at the left side of the pic you will see whats wrong. I've managed to twist my knitting when I joined. ;8 I will now have to rip it out and start again. I'm glad its a quick knit and soft lovely yarn.

Nothing else going on except I learned to knit toe-up creating a seamless toe. Its awesome, the pattern wasn't that easy to read but we did manage to cast on and it looked nice. I will be translating this pattern so that a friend and I can knit the socks. In the meantime, she has decided to make monkeys toe-up and here's what I will be doing:

2 dishcloths ~ one for me and one for my dishcloth pal

2 pair of socks ~ gentlemen socks from nancy bush vintage sock book/secret pair which may turn into toe-up monkeys

1 sweater ~ lovely B2S when I recast this week
