Sweaty Sunday

It is so humid out today!

I started Rivendell socks the other day after I went to the yarn store for a class and picked up this yarn. I had another yarn in my stash for this pattern, but I thought this colorway reminded me of birch trees and such so I thought it would work well for this pattern. This photo doesn't show the stitch definition well so once I am done I will take another photo with them on so that the pattern can show.

Not much news on the knitting front at the moment. Our echinacea is blooming nicely though. I got a few photos including some baby bees!





I am still working on my Firestarter socks and will finish those for July. I also started some gloves for my friend in England so that they'll be done by Winter. I started the ribbing but think I will cast on again, one stitch didn't cast on right and its noticable now. Will post photos of that once I get some done.

I am taking a class at my local yarn store this Tuesday on designing your own socks.
