It’s Tour-de-Sock time again, so I’m taking a break from music to knit socks. Every 10 days or so, I get a new sock pattern to knit as quickly as possible. I compete against knitters from all over the world, and my goal is to finish in the top 25. The first stage I placed 33, but that was including babysitting my adorable toddler granddaughter.
The socks have to be knit to competition minimums, which generally are too large for my feet. They become really good gifts, if the husband doesn’t abscond with them first.
My yarn is all (er–almost all) wound into usable cakes, and my carbon-fiber needles are polished. I’ll make a cup of tea and make sure that snacks are handy. I won’t be cooking dinner this afternoon, so I’d best get that slow cooker ready. Alexa is ready to play music or audiobooks. Stage 1 looked like this:
See y’all in a couple of days!
