Knitting Olympics part 3

I woke this morning to find that Kirknewton has become a mini-Whistler overnight.

The chickens are seriously unimpressed by the return of the white stuff and emerged only briefly for a cursory inspection before retreating back into the eglu with a fluster of indignant feather ruffling.

Sock The First is now finished, bar the kitchenering, and Sock The Second is OTN.

There isn’t much knitting time left though and I fear I may need a schedule with thrumpetyteen rows per day on it.

Wednesday – rib and 2 repeats.

Thursday – one and a half repeats and the heel flap.

Friday – turn the heel and do the gussets.

Saturday – half the foot.

Sunday -the rest of the foot and the toe.

Do you think I can do it? It looks easy written down like that, but as all mice know, the best laid schemes sometimes gang aft agley!

    I find the second sock goes faster, I think I want it to be a pair so much that it spurs me on and there’s that nice sense of deja vu as I’ve done everything once before. You can do it!

    Poor chucks.

    Keep going with the knitting, we need a Gold for Scotland seeing as the girls in the curling could not manage it.

    But Go Boys!

    It looks very doable. Everything is easier when you cut it up into chunks. Good luck!
