Yes, you read that right. Knitting socks that are not monkeys. These are Basket Weave Rib Socks by Sarah Ronchetti.
So far I am enjoying the pattern and the yarn is beautiful. Darker teal than what I can capture with my camera today.
In other news, I submitted that paper that I have been working on f-o-r-e-v-e-r today. This is quite an accomplishment given that it was due by the 28th and I tend to submit at the 11th hour, quite literally. It felt good to be done with it for a little while. If it gets accepted (which I hope that it will) it will mean the writing of a much longer paper, but that’s ok. I’ve already cut enough out of this paper to fill up about 4 or 5 pages:-) Submitting doesn’t mean anything really except that I am done editing the abstract at this point. If it gets accepted, that’s where the real work begins!
I went and fed the fish, geese, and swans again today and again I forgot my camera. Tomorrow I promise….
