And she misses

Yes, that is 1 complete sock, and one sock that almost has a complete gussett.  Yes I realize that yesterday was DH’s B-day.  Yes I do realize his feet are probably cold today all because I’m a bad wife and didn’t finish his socks. Yes, I am a bad knitter because I didn’t finish in time.  In reality, I am not really a bad wife or a bad knitter, I just get distracted so easily, so in the case of the sock I am both.

I didn’t make it, so this is what DH got for his Bday yesterday.  Granted I have several excuses good reasons for missing on this one, well ok, 2 shiny objects got in my way, and it didn’t help that when we went to breakfast I fogot to bring the 2nd dpn i was using on the heel.

 There’s this bamboo i’ve been trying to finish spinning, and for what ever reason it chose yesterday to call my name and call it loudly.  So I was just going to take a 15 min break and spin some bamboo and one thing led to another and an hour later I was still spinning.

 The other shiny object, well I’m beta testing software for a friend and I fell into the black hole of my computer for quite some time late yeterday afternoon. Then DH got home from his SB activities and well I couldn’t very well put his sock over him. 

Ok, I’ll have to admit I heard the call of sleeve island yesterday too.

    Awww, well, it’s not as if he was really EXPECTING that they’d be done, right? I mean, he’s been married to you long enough now to know that while your intentions are pure, your follow-through is sometimes subject to distraction!

    Very handsome sock and a half to the gusset!

    The chi of fiber is strong. Sometimes you just have to take the byroads….
