Well, almost to cuff. If the socks
were for me, the cuff would be done and then some, but men's socks
are bigger, so I want a deeper cuff. It stands at 2 inches now, and
I'll continue in 2 X 2 ribbing till its 2.5 inches.
The jacquard pattern is not very
evident in the 2 x 2 ribbing, so the bulk of the sock will be a
wider ribbing. 6 X 2 I think, which will make a nice transition. It
will enough ribbing to help keep the socks up, and snug. S-I-L has
stated the previous socks fit, but I sometime think he is generally
happy about the fit, and just doesn't realize he could make little
complaints and perfect fit. Most people don't have a lot of
experience with custom fitted clothing—and just don't expect
perfect fit. So a little ribbing will keep the snug and better
fitting.
The first potholder have moved from
half done to 2/3rds done.
Finished, the potholder will have 3 diamonds, top to bottom.
Which sounds like progress, but really is
just a 8 rows.
By tomorrow, it should be 3/4ths done—Unless I
make more progress than I expect—I don't think it will be finished,
but close. I won't bring it along on Friday to knit on the bus, I
will keep it, and any other ones I knit till the kitchen is finished.
I might bring some Command hooks too.
