It’s getting old, but I’m just running like mad. The girls are out of school in two more days, and then things will be sane again.

We were at a gorgeous place called Kayak Point for a 3-6 grade BBQ all day yesterday. It was soooo nice.

Hours and hours of sand digging, crab catch and releasing, sunbathing, etc. I brought the Uptown Boot Socks and picked up both gussets. Now I’m cruising down towards the toe. Since the stitch count changes so dramatically in the gusset, the swirly stripes are all cattywumpus. That’s fine, but the pattern has me decrease for the foot to 58 stitches, when the leg was knit in 64. So the stripes are continuing to mutate. I don’t know if it’s good, bad, or otherwise. What do you think?

Those are both sides of the same sock.

And I’m off again. I’m squeezing in a serger lesson (I’ve had the thing for over a year and have no idea how to use it) before helping out at the school. Then I want to dash to JoAnn’s for a fabric sale before coming home to get the tips of my hair punk dyed with Hayden. Mine are getting punk dyed, and even though it was her idea, she’s just getting highlights.

Chicken.
