Progress Made

[legalmoose]

Now comes the difficult part - trying to get things fixed in the conference on the stimulus bill. Ugh.

Seem to have irritated my foot, not in the plantar fasciitis sense, but a sprain on the top of it. Yay for overdoing it. Guess the swim last night was a tad too much.

Because it was so irritated, tonight was a night off from things, watching a couple of bad movies ("The Seeker," and "The Apple"), with some more progress made on my co-worker K's hat:



It's about halfway done now, with most of the repetitive cabling done - 1.25 repeats left of the main repeat, then I start the decreases to the top. Might get it done this weekend so I can get it off to her.

Maybe. ;) I do think SC is getting some funding, if not as much as originally expected.

it's beautiful. and are you watching on HULU?

I'd really like to have a conversation with you about stimulus stuff and Tarps and the like. I'm in the financial industry, but really a sideline player as I work on their computers and sarbox compliance, not on what they do.

Looking great! The strangest part about the decreasing is that the start of the round moves to the right. On those rounds, you have to end the previous repeat early.

Which cast on did you use?
Which increase did you use at the end of the ribbing?

I used a knitted cast on - I'm over longtail these days as I hate having to measure the things out, especially for something this long. Did whatever increase she told me in the pattern. LOL I think it was purling into the bar between stitches. Not minding the moving of the start, and I can see why you have to do it (since it would be difficult to do cables around the stitch marker). Am liking the pattern a lot.
