Smooches for the Mailperson

By Holly | July 8, 2007

So, I was out on the front porch knitting on this:

RSCJune

That would be the June RSC kit. The colorway is Firebird and the pattern is a really quick knit. Kind of soothing after Grasshopper. All those yo/p2tog about killed me. I was starting to worry that I would be knitting on those forever, but I did finish them sometime last week. If Mr. would cooperate, I would have pics. hint hint A couple of more inches of cuff and my first June sock will be done. Which is good ‘cos as I was saying I was sitting on the porch knitting when this arrived:

Vespery goodness

That would be my fabulous Vesper Sock shipment. From left to right: Crew, Astro, Sherbert (sic), and Tartan. The girl called dibs on Astro. She wants to learn how to knit socks really badly so we’re going to give it a go. I’ve been forcing her to work on her tension and holding the Vesper out as the carrot. It’s hard to let go of it though. I had to stalk Knitterly Things for months to get my hands on those four skeins so they are very precious. I am going to knit up the Crew for Mr. I owe him socks in the worst way and he likes that colorway. His only request is that I use the same pattern I am knitting now. I guess I can do that but then it’s on to plain.simple.socks. in self striping deliciousness.
