socks and a blob
As my dogs and cats are my witnesses, these projects will be finished by the end of the month! With the help of a kick-ass Law & Order:SVU marathon on yesterday, I was able to get a pretty good start!

Pretty pink pomatomus socks! I know I'm way late coming to this party, but hey, better late than never! I had started it in a variegated but quickly realized that I wanted to showcase the pattern as much as possible. This is RYC cashcotton and should keep the socks light but still comfy. Socktoberfest, here I come!

Gray blob.

An attempt to make the gray blob look like Glee. This is oh, the fifth start of this sweater. I decided that the hand-dyed yarn was a little too bright for this and I had some RYC Cashsoft in my (miniscule) stash that I've been dying to use. I love how it's turning out but it's been a struggle to get it the right size. After finding out that the original cast-on numbers were incorrect in the pattern, I started over with the small size. That ended up being too big and since this is my first sweater I really want it to fit great. So, now I'm working the x-small and after a couple more rows I'll try it on and see how it fits. I think once it's done, instead of the hook and eyes I'm gonna see if I can find some small toggle buttons and use those for the front closure. I actually started this in the gray before I found the Grey's Anatomy KAL and it's working perfectly to knit during the show. With so much stockinette and the increases being almost done, it's pretty mindless, perfect for keeping your eyes on McDreamy!
