will I finish a whole pair of socks this month???? That's a huge question. I've finished sock number one of Sockamania July pair. So I ought to get the pattern typed up and knit up the 2nd sock to test knit the pattern really. I've also got probably about 5 socks which need a partner. My Sockamania June pair (River Valley Toe up) 2nd sock is started but only just. I've also got a 'Rainforest' pair in YY which I'm about halfway on the 2nd sock.

So what am I knitting these days??? Lace, lace, lace. And because I'm spending time dyeing/ skeining and reskeining yarn I've foudn I've got less time to knit. Confused That's not good.

So my challenge for the rest of this week is to finish a pair of socks. Who thinks Ican do it? Well, I know I can knit one sock in nearly a week but have I got the willpower to leave my 2 lace projects and get on with socks? And with the Mystery Stole starting this week, I'm not so sure. Confused

Try to set a target of getting your pair of socks finished by Friday, thats what I am hoping to do, got to the heel of my second sock and trying not to get tempted by new projects as I know I will have mystery stole on Friday

You can do it Wink

I've got my Sockmania socks to finish this week - just about to start the increases for the heel (toe up) but I'm procrastinating now too. Do I do my swatch for MS3 so I can order some lace needles or get on with socks... or should I clear the table and put the dishwasher on? Embarassed

I hope you're allright Fi. The rain is supposed to be moving away soon according to thenews a little while ago. Scary seeing all those pics on telly. We're lucky we don't live in a flood risk area. If our town flooded half of Cornwall would be underwater. Altough there are places in town they get flast flooding but we're at the top of a long hill.

No sock knittig tonight. But I've got a feeling I might be up during the night. My neck pain is very, very bad tonight (probably all the dyeing and reskeining I did this morning) so doubt I'll sleep through the night. Got severe head ache too. Taken painkillers and sleeping tabs (take them everynight) but not done much so far. Confused If I do get upduring the night. I'll try and get on with finishing my Rainforest.
