My first attempt at knitting two socks at a time on one circular needle -- going well so far. This picture just makes me happy. And apparently, the yarn agrees.

Happy 4th of July!
I stayed up late last night, watching old Charlie's Angels re-runs, and finishing up these socks. They are in their soak right now, blocking next...

Saturday in D.C.
Spent a wonderful day with my Hubby in D.C. yesterday. We started at the Jefferson Memorial and walked all the way down to the Lincoln Memorial, seeing the sights along the path. I love living this close to the nation's capital.

Completely done with the Regatta Tee. I am immensely happy with it. Pics to follow in the next few days. :)

Blocked and drying
Best news of all from yesterday: Hubby came home from his site trip. :) Second best news is that I soaked my Regatta Tee and blocked it to dry. Checked on it this morning and it seems to be a bit drier, but this might take a day or two. This weekend it will be finished for sure!

2,829
When I say that I have 22 rows left to knit, it doesn't sound like much, does it? Nah, not really, and then actually, it's 23 rows, because row 23 is the bind off row. But.......
23 rows X 123 stitches per row = 2,829 stitches.
That's how many individual stitches I knitted tonight. I'm tired, my hands ache a bit, but it's done. The Regatta Tee is off the needles. Tomorrow night I will soak it and then block it. :)
