Oscar Knitting

I'm getting all set for an evening of Oscar watching and my plans are to knit -- SOCKS!

I know! Who woulda guessed? I've been working on a pair for my sister (mentioned at the bottom of this post.) I'm on the 2nd sock and just over 1/2 done with it. I'm sure there aren't many more stitches than in a "normal" sock, but these tube socks seem like they go on forever!

So, to change the pace, I've started a pair for DD3. They'll be top down, ribbed leg & instep, heel flap & gusset. These will be my March SAM9 socks. More about them later. Need to fix a cuppa Yorkshire Tea and then I'll get knitting.

Happy Oscar Watching to all :-)

I opted out this year. Not sure why. Perhaps because I saw very few of the movies this year....not as much fun to watch, that being the case. I did see Avatar though.... which I thought was terrific. Catching up on all the results (and fashion) has been fun today though. Hope you had a fun time.....

I worked on a baby sweater through the Oscars. Miles and miles of stockinette ......................zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!

What is Yorkshire tea? I'm having a cup of camomile tea this morning. A nice relaxing cup of tea is just what I needed on this chilly morning.
