Soaking? In progress.
Looks like some kind of primordial soup, ja?

Pictures, Yay!
I bet most of you thought my camera was broken, what with the dearth of pictures displaying knitterly goodness lately. Au contraire, mes amis! It's just that I've been neglecting to take photos; after all - I can do that tomorrow!! Right?
Today is tomorrow, and here we go!
The 2 years 56 days long Wings of a Dream.
See how the wings both point in the same direction? Now my daughter won't fly in circles anymore when she wears it! I have plans to weave in the ends tonight, and then soak and block on Tuesday evening. We'll see how that works out.
Bus Socks VII, continued:
Past the heel of #2, so not much more to do.
These socks are intended as a birthday gift. This Fearless Fibers yarn is Merino, Cashmere, and Nylon sock weight in the Sublime colorway. It's very soft and scrumptious to work with. Nothing fancy on this: nice, steady, comforting stockinette. It really shows off the color beautifully, I think.

FINISHED!
I have completed the Wings of a Dream stole (again) for my daughter. Finally. Only the soaking, blocking, and weaving in of ends are yet to be done. No more frogging and reknitting.

It's a small world
My express bus #909 and the other express bus #902 had to merge one of their routes because the City of Tulsa is broke, and they want to cut costs. This is not a bad thing, the merging of routes. I don't mind a full bus, it doesn't take a lot of room to knit socks.
The nifty part is it actually turned out that one of the ladies from the #902 route now riding on the #909 saw me knitting and asked if I was on Ravelry, because she is - how cool is that?! So here's a shout out to KnittedZebra! Hey girl - see ya on the bus!

So close...
Canada takes the gold in hockey in OT. Congratulation, Canada. But the USA made them work for that gold, it wasn't an easy win. I'm so very proud of our team! Very proud indeed!

I may have found it
My knitting mojo, I mean. Last night I picked up the Wings of a Dream stole, frogged the entire re-knit of the second wing, and began again. (Meh, I wasn't very far along anyway.) Since I had missed a row on the chart somehow while dropping a stitch along the way, I decided that I needed to start over. Once I did, it felt good to be knitting. Baby, I'm back!
