Ask For Help Already!

This post that I'm posting today is dedicated to Chris @vtknitboy.. I know I haven't blogged in a while because I didn't have anything to blog about..

Well last night I was tweeting Chis and he really inspired me to pick up my Every Way Wrap by Okmin Parks.. I have been working on this shawl since May 2010.. Yes I said it and the only reason it took so long was because I had to continually frog!! (and for all you none knitters, frog means to unravel or unknit the pattern) after 2 weeks I did some research because I was getting upset that the pattern wasn't looking like the pattern in the magazine.. That's when I found out that the pattern was incorrect! The incorrect part was the reversal cable.. Thank God I took the time to research because I was dedicated to this pattern.. Then after knitting for so long, guess what?! I packed it away and completed two cupcake hats and a scarf that I still still yet to finish.. I also started a sock. Finish one and is half way threw the second sock.. That's called sock syndrome.. So now I have to learn a new technique for my next sock that I'm going to make to support the cause of LUPUS! It's a tweeted purple sock yarn. The technique is called the magic loop.. I will be using YouTube to practice on some old yarn until I get it down packed and make two socks at once..

So thanks again Chris @vtknitboy
Yes I'll post pictures when I'm half way threw.. Which I'm already half way threw so 3/4th's threw!
