GO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jan. 22nd, 2006 08:27 pmAfter much frantic knitting the past couple of weeks, THEY'RE DONE!!!!!!!!!! T's long-legged kilt hose are DONE DONE DONE!!!!!!!
Yes, it does merit that many exclamation points. The ribbing along on these had 6600 sts. A grand total of 62" of handknit stockings (eachsock, tip to top, 31" long), at 7.5 sts/inch, matched cables on a purled background (hence the slow pace of completion), and THEY'RE DONE!!!!!
I'm going to celebrate with good chocolate, and tea, and some Firefly. And maybe a bit of frivolous knitting, on a pair of socks for myself.
In other news, Tristan got MAJOR boyfriend points this weekend. First, he bought me a wonderful little teapot/tea infuser last night, which is exactly the necessary thing to make a Perfect Cup Of Jasmine Tea (and he gave me soem of that, too). And this morning, I got more morning sex, and this thing he did with his hips....oooooo, yeah. Definitely earned points for that.
