Knitting and other Creative Endeavors

[Matterhorn Fan]

Lisa, go get your scarf and get knitting. I reread your original post and your yarn sounds fabulous! Maybe when you finish you can go buy some new shoes to match it...

I'm past the part where I have to count rows. Now it's just the number of times the pattern repeats until I get to the heel, follow the pattern for the decreases, count pattern repeats again, and then follow the pattern for the toe decreases. If it's a little bit off, that'll be ok. They're going to be in my shoes and most likely covered by long pants (since I can't imagine why I would wear dark brown socks with shorts).
