Well, I enjoyed my trip. We spent most of the time in the mid-west and saw some beautiful country. I didn't get any pictures, as the batteries for the camera died on me :(

I did get one pair of socks knitted while out. They are fall colors and ended up being big enough for Bob to wear, as my stitch gauge was way off. I then did a gauge swatch for the B&L I had with me and cast on the correct number of stitches for ME a pair of socks. I'm using the Ribbed Lace pattern from Sensational Knitted Socks. I have one done and the second one is down to the heel flap, and that should be done by the time I go to bed tonight.

My next project is going to be catching up on the KALs I have been collecting the patterns for this fall. The first one on the needles will be the Secret of Chrysopolis in some 2/28 100% silk from ColourmartUK in Blush, which is a pinky-cream. I still have to decide on what yarn and beads to use for the Secret of the Stole.

I have already signed up for 3 KALs starting in January/February, so will have to get to work on washing fleeces, flicking and spinning for them.
