No, as in the rest of the sock. The ankle. I'll be starting over completely.

Ahhhh.. I missed the word "almost". I'll look at B&N the next time I am there.

Aside from that, the best pics I have seen yet of the wire crochet is here
Step by step wire jewlery
There are tons more out there, but this has the best "in process" pics.
There are a few more with great pieces, and I know there's a book.

Ok- I am crocheting am afghan- I made the first chain way too long so I am making it side to side rather than top to bottom- sort of.

I rarely have time to do it- but it's pretty and should be nice when it is done.

I also do cross stitch and needle point- again, rarely.

I love craftie stuff- I just don't have alot of time to fit it in.

Nephy, I do stuff like this while watching TV. (But I have a tendency to be restless or fall asleep if I try to JUST watch TV, and I also have a tendency to listen to the TV rather than watch it, which means I can look at my work....)

Oh no, more things to distract me.

I'm starting Take 2 of the sweater thingy. I think I got my stitches under control.

I also do most of this stuff while watching TV (mostly catching up on DVDs). I've never been able to just sit and watch the tube without having something else going on.

Finished a pair of white/purple/blue multicolored socks and have started on a pair of bamboo/blue spot socks for my mom. Some day I'll actually take photos.

Matterhorn Fan · 08-08-2006, 08:52 AM

Which pattern did you settle on?

Prudence · 08-08-2006, 10:34 AM

Baby cable rib. I think it's going to turn out pretty.

Matterhorn Fan · 08-08-2006, 11:13 AM

I'm doing garter rib. The yarn changes color every inch or two. It's a bit much.

Prudence · 08-08-2006, 03:15 PM

Just the color? Or the color with the pattern?
