Pretty Yarn Friday! »»
March 25, 2009
I am so excited!
For 2 reasons. First reason. I finished a pair of socks I started way back in January!
I still haven't broken my promise of starting anything new until my blue sweater is done, but these were really almost done.
So I just finished them up. Like that.
Specs:
Pattern: Basic Sock Pattern - Ann Budd
Needles: US 1 Circulars (2 of them)
Yarn: Koigu Painter's Palette Premium Merino (KPPPM) - 2 skeins
All is on my project page in Ravelry. I dunno why I repeat myself here. Most of you are already there....
Okay, on to Reason #2 why I am excited.
Saturday, May 2nd, me, the husband, and the son are going to see....
those bonnie scottish lads: Mogwai
It's an all ages show at the Pearl Street Night Club in Northampton Mass.
YES!!!! I did say NORTHAMPTON! You know what is in NORTHAMPTON don't you??
sigh..... oh happy days! And it's my birthday weekend! I am already making my list! YAY!!!!!!
Edit: My birthday weekend is in may...not now.
;-)

Congratulations! :) ...both on the finished beautiful socks and the webs trip. I sometimes take it for granted (about 30-40 minutes away), but I hope you enjoy it! ..don't get lost in the warehouse! :)
