I tried a two color pattern from my knit book but i got to confused so I pulled it out.  I'll give it a try when I'm calmer.

Frogged the Moss Stitch Jacket and the Sassy Socks.  Neither project was working out well.  now i'm crocheting a scarf for my favorite waitress.  I hope I have enough yarn.

I was a tiny bit short on the yarn but I just stopped to rows short and it worked out.  She said she liked it.  i've restarted the Moss Stitch Jacket with two strands of yarn as suggested and a slightly larger needle.  I hit the gauge on the nose which made me happy.

We will see how it goes from here.  I've lost my new counter already.

I'm back to the knitting.  I'm doing the two needle socks.  I love this pattern.  I've just turned the heel and I'm headed for the toe on the first one. 



Good for you.  I tried knitting socks and did fine as long as I was with other knitters but when I was alone I couldn't figure out what to do.  I finally gave it up.  Never did finish my socks.  I think I was using 5 needles though.  Maybe 4 needles.  I've blocked it.  :)

I can't use the dpns.  I may try again another day if I don't run out of days first.
