An actual knitting update, but with pictures of flowers

I really didn’t expect to get so many people de-lurking when I posted about birth control. It seems like there are a lot of women for whom artificial hormones are just BAD NEWS! I’m rather excited at the prospect of getting back to ‘Normal’, and being able to think clearly again.

I have been knitting some Thelonious socks (those are the ones I’ve messed up so many times) and I’m almost done with the cuffs. I have swatched and am just a few calculations away from starting my EPS, which should be nice since I will have a lot of knitting time this weekend. I’m a little nervous since I plan to steek it. So if I messed up on a calculation, I am kind of worried that I can’t go back and fix it if the yarn is in a million row-length pieces.

I bought a bunch of beautiful fringed tulips this weekend… there are 4 more pictures you can see in my flickr photostream if you click through the picture above.

No problem on the EPS – the good thing is that you get to try it on BEFORE you steek it!

Good luck with your EPS. I am also knitting one that I will cut, and have similar concerns about correct calculations.

That is an absolutely lovely photo!

Gorgeous photo! How are you liking the camera??
