JUNO REGINA

Well, I've joined my first lace KAL and we're doing the Knitty pattern Juno Regina (designed by Miriam Felton for Knitty, Fall 2007) (my midwifery background wants me to call it Juno Vagina!). I keep humming and hawing about which of my yarns I should use - it calls for 950 yards and I think my Knitting Goddess cashmere has only 612 yards. I really must get in touch with Joy - she's so helpful.

I do have three skeins of HipKnits cobweb, but I think that might be a bit too adventurous - eek time.

Decisions, decisions!

JO'S LABOUR SOCKS

Obviously as yet unblocked (and very likely to remain so - once you put a sock on it blocks itself doesn't it!) this is the first sock of the pair that I am knitting for my daughter.

She wanted a specific pair of socks for her labour - her first child is due on Thursday!

MY WEE TINY SOCK!

Here it is! Took me two hours because I dropped the final stitches and because I was working in dim light I couldn't see to pick them up. Still, it's rather cute eh?
