I’ve had some sort of virus since Friday, and between feeling too awful to do anything but lie on the couch croaking ‘Panadeine. Give me Panadeine” or feeling well enough to work a bit, I managed to do some knitting.

I finished the lacy cotton anklets:

So far in my knitting adventures, I haven’t suffered second sock syndrome. Boy did I come close this time. The weather took a sudden turn from cotten anklet weather to Koigu woolly goodness sock weather. I staved off these yearnings with the very warm Liquorish Allsorts Jumper until I finished the lacy socks and last night started:

Ribble Socks, in Koigu KPM (part of Peeve’s cat captioning comp prize), using my heel-flap toe-up socks pattern (more testing) and the Ribble Socks texture from Socks Socks Socks. The yarn is slightly shiny, which makes the ribble effect more noticable.

Liquorish Allsorts Report:
Over the weekend I finally got to the armholes. Today I cast on for the first sleeve. I’ve used 5 of the 11 balls of black, and it looks like I may have just enough, or just a bit too little. Ah, the suspense!
