The Woolhead Returns

It's been a little while since I've shown any progress updates. Remember this?

It's been over a month since I frogged & restarted this one. Compare the pic here to the one above and you will notice that there is indeed progress. I've even started a second skein, which means that I'm a bit further along than I was when I decided to frog it before. As I mentioned in the last post, it was a welcome distraction flying to and from Hawai'i, and I actually made decent progress during those nearly interminable flights. Enough to make me feel like I actually have a shot at finishing something before I die.

Sock Wars

I found out today about Sock Wars, which is being organized by Yarn Monkey. I don't think that I'm a very good joiner, in general. I've never signed on for a knit-along before. The whole "death by socks" and intrigue aspects of this have really piqued my interest, though. I just think I may be hard-pressed to knock out a pair of socks before being killed. That and what are the chances my killer will actually knit up a pair of socks that'll fit my size 13 feet? I suppose, though, that it would mean one less Christmas gift I'd have to worry about.

This looks pretty fun, actually. I may just do it. Any other joiners?
