Socks socks socks

I really do think about something besides knitting, rather often as a matter of fact, but there's not much else to do in the trunk in between moving the hose. Yes, I'm bored. I've already heard the playlist for the three radio stations I can stand, once through each, today. Should have got batteries for the boom box and brought some cd's or something

Anyway, the sock update (because there's not enough progress yet for a full report)--got a bit more than half of the toe done so far. Note to self: next time, fiddle with the pattern until it's an odd number of stitches across. Getting those first few rounds of increases to line up right is a real bugger otherwise. The shape at the point of the toe is a little different form the other socks I've done with this pattern (all odd numbers of sts on a side), but it's not bad, I think.

I played with key and mosaic patterns last night, and got one I think will work for the sweater. I set it aside for a while, on the table where I can see it every time I walk past. I was still undecided about it last night ( my second opinion/design staff being out of town, and unavailabe to help me with these things). Definitely want to save it for a sock pattern, whatever else I do with it.

Haven't worked with that weight yet. Ought to be fine, though. And green is good.
