Knitter in Progress

I finally finished my Penguins socks. I started them when they won the Cup(2009) and finished one very quickly and then the dreaded second sock syndrome hit and I worked on the second one sporadically. I thought I could finish them while watching games last season but what I have learned is that I cannot knit a lot during a Pens game--I get too into the game. But they are done now, ready for pre-season which starts at the end of September! I also started another pair of socks for my Grandmother. I'm trying to do them using the magic loop method. I'm not sure my gauge is the same this way but I am getting the hang of it. In other news, I started a third round of P90X when my kiddos started school in August and I have finished the first month, starting the second this week. I just love P90X even though it is sometimes a pain to make the time to workout everyday--the results are more than worth it. Speaking of which, I need to go workout now.

My two favorite Pens in one commercial :) Sid and Max--that just makes my day. Have a Happy New Year and be safe.

One down,one to go. I love the way this sock looks but there are a ton of ends I had to weave in. At first I thought I could carry the colors but I thought the 5 and 8 row repeats were too long to float so I cut the yarn before each.
