So here is the finished product of the curlers. The monkey butt really enjoys some curly hair (as all of us straight haired girls do)
Today has been a rough one. For some reason I am just having a day where nothing is coming easy. Every thing has to be done the hard way and after numerous tinks and at least 4 restarts on my stupid Anastasia socks I have ripped them and conceded to the fact that I am going to have to make them toe up and I am soo not in the mood I may just hid the sock yarn some where in a bag and not look at it for months like i have in the past. ( I am beginning to think my knit one crochet two ty dy sock yarn I had to have last year is evil since it has caused me nothing but pain at this point. ) I think it has some sort of bad ju ju.
Alas I will move on and show you what I got done before I touched the accursed sock yarn. I made sock blockers out of place mats that are the size for monkey butt and my nephews socks. The place mats where thinner then I would like but they have small feet so I cut 4 and hot glued two layers together for nice thick sock blockers.
Here and the monkey mans socks. I finished them and tossed them on the sock blockers to get a shot. I have tons of hand washes that need done my leaf t these socks lots of other things but I just don't have the heart for it today. I think I may have to read tonight since I am scared to try to start anything else and my socks just were ripped again and I think I might sob uncontrollably if I screw up again. I don't understand where this is so hard for me I have knit the 2 billion bead lace stole I have knit lots of complicated things but these socks are going to be the death of me (and what a embarrassing one that would be lol) Well I guess it is me and Abraham Lincoln vampire hunter and the cranky over worked hubby tonight lol. Wish me luck people. I think I need it and If I should be mysteriously hung by some sock yarn...I warned you people it was evil !!!
No - it's not evil! It's *wonderful* sock yarn. Perhaps it just doesn't want to be Anastasia socks.... (I used mine for mittens.)
ReplyDeleteMonkey butt looks lovely with her curly hair :)
Take some time off and spend it with your poor, tired hubby. You both deserve it!
