What's this big box?

It's got lots of stuff in it...

Looks like it could be good stuff.

How do you put this thing together?

Maybe a bit like this?
and I think I put it together right.jpg

Hey, there's some yarn! I think I did it right!
that's my yarn.jpg

I'm babysitting Carolyn's wheel for a year while she decides if she really wants to be a spinner or not. Now I'm all ready for Cara's Spin-Out! Thank you so much, Carolyn!! This rocks the house.

Edited to add: HOLY CRAP! This is so much fun! You've got to try this!

Socks that Rock Hard Update

Here's the first of the Socks that Rock Hard. It's grown quite a bit. Hours of Buffy-thon with Jackie makes the knitting go soooooo much faster. As you can see, I decided to not go with the lace. I like the way it looks just as a ribbed sock. I think I'm going to save the feather and fan for the Hot Flash StR. Pink lacey socks will be so cute. And I think I'll have enough to make them pretty tall, considering how much yarn I have left in this ball:

I'm probably going to have enough yarn for a second pair of Socks that Rock Hard. Nice.

Oh, and the date? Sadly, not so much fun. Oh, well. There will be more... soon. :)
