Falling Back Into A Routine


It's been a busier than busy summer and I'm expecting a busier than busy Fall, but I'm getting back into routine.  This summer I was able to spend some time hooking.  The circle rug is coming along nicely.  Most of the colour circles are complete and I'm working towards beginning the background.  I'll post a few pictures later. 

In August I decided to check off an item on my bucket list.  Socks.  I've always wanted to try my hand at knitting socks.  So I got on Amazon.ca and started ordering the things I would need.  When I ordered the needles, wool and book, I didn't realize at the time that they would be coming from different locations.  So I spent 3-4 weeks waiting while one piece came at a time.  First the needles, good.  Then one ball of wool, good.  Finally the book!  I was so happy that day to open the book and finally see what I was going to be making!  Until I read that you needed TWO balls of wool.  Sigh.  So off to Michaels, I had enough waiting.  Nara picked out the colour I would use.  I only have a few rows done at this point, but I'm already loving them!
