Today is NaBloPoMo Day 18 and Day 3 of my self imposed WIP-it Down Week.
Yesterday I spent all my crafting time on my Coffee Cantata Socks and I got a goodly amount done! I now have a HO (half finished object). One sock is complete and the second is ready for the foot to be knit. It turned out I only needed to do rounds 34 though 54 and that gave me enough length for my foot. My row gauge is wonky on these socks! They are big and I am not really 100% happy with them. I think it might be partly my yarn choice and partly a gauge issue. They are too long in the leg and I can't pull them up my fat leg. They are too loose in the heel as well, but the foot is a good length... I suspect I will fold down the leg and wear them around the house. Oh well, they are almost done now and I will be so happy to see the end of them! Here is what they look like now:
On the schedule for today is to catch up on tucking in many, many tails on my Temperature scarf. I also need to catch up on a couple days (4 days actually) worth of rows. I have not tucked in tails since late June - OYE! I don't actually think this will take a huge amount of time but we shall see though. If I finish the tails with time to spare I think I will go back to my Coffee Cantata socks since those are getting closer to completion!
Here is a picture of all the tails waiting to be taken care of:
