HAPPINESS!

Somebody has started knitting the armwarmers pattern! A person who I have never met and whom I know nothing about has deemed my pattern worthy enough to use it to make something. This is so cool. I can't wait to see what they do with it!

I really don't have much other news in the world of knitting. Despite the fact that I have spent hours and hours doing stuff *related* to knitting over the last few days, I have done very little manipulation of sticks and string. Ravelry is taking over my free time, and the more days go by, the more I seem to lose track of how I managed without it.

However, today I finished the cuff on the second of Mom's Christmas socks. (1st sock finished pic shamelessly lifted off my Ravelry project pictures)
This blogger thing for pictures is getting really annoying; I can't seem to position pictures so that they're where I want them, and so the text is right. Oh well, I suppose I'll figure it out eventually.

Congrats! Isn't that a great feeling? The other day, my incarnation of a project got picked as the featured photo for that pattern! It makes me feel very accomplished...

The socks look berry berry good!
What's the pattern?

For the pictures: when you download them, at the bottom of that screen there is a choice of where you want them to be positioned.
You can move their position (up and down in the text) by clicking on the picture in question, holding down and pulling it so that get a little line that tells you where the picture would go if you released your mouse. Move that to where you want it, and you're done!

Thanks for the picture advice! I've already sort of been doing that-- it's just being obstinate. I think I'll probably start making my pictures small so that I can move them around better, and have them be clickable for a bigger size.

And the pattern is the Elongated Corded Rib from Sensational Knitted Socks, by Charlene Schurch. It's on my ravelry, too. (kmeister87)
