Knit along for Stitch Diva’s Bellocq Stockings

Well, I’m officially disgusted.  See, it’s been snowing for two whole days now…  I’m knitting my socks in wool.  This would be the perfect time to wear them.  Nice warm and pretty socks to go with the mostly cold weather and snow.  As it is, I’ve been sidetracked for the whole weekend, so I just finished my third, of the second attempt, lace rep today and haven’t even started the heel.  Disgusted.

 On the flip side, I’m doing very well stomping on my perfectionist side.  I’ve got a pact with myself that as long as I don’t drop stitches, if I don’t notice a mistake in the first round after it’s made, I’m not going back.  I’ve accidentally added stitches across the foot and k2tog to fix that and I’ve got a k2tog that was supposed to be a ssk.  Just thinking about it makes my hand itch, but I’m determined not to frog again, at all, unless I drop a stitch.  In short, I, sort of, want it to look like a second project.  Because it is.

So that’s my knitting life lately.

 Cheers.
