The holidays are coming and as usual, I'm not knitting a damn thing for gifts. It's too stressful and takes the fun out of knitting (at least for me). I got the tree up this weekend and it's lovely but the house is a wreck so a photo is going to have to wait until ... maybe next Sunday! Yeah, it was cheesy but I'm in a festive mood!
I finished up around 7 and decided to try my hand at a Fair Isle technique I've seen for the Circular Sock Machine. It's the perfect accent for boring work socks, just enough to make them interesting.
I think it’s pretty good for a 1st go but damn, it's such a twisted mess, so tedious and as expected, tirelessly time consuming! And no, you may not see the other side. If you're a knitter, you'll get that, if not...Happy Holidays!!
Until Sunday! IAKG

I would like to be the sort of person who doesn't knit thier christmas presents, but I'm so nuts that the crazy insane rush has a great appeal for me, almost a sort of high that comes off of knitting half the night at breakneck pace.
The road to hell is paved with good intentions, and you are no exception. I would tell you that it wasn't going to happen -- as a challenge, but you've already removed that chance. (My current defense for all this Zimmermann bullsh*t, I was drunk at the time. Not my best work but it's effective.)
