WIP Wednesday: Forward Progress*

Some weeks any forward progress is a good thing. I had The Husband home for 5 days and N for 3. Neither of them are conducive to squeezing in a few minutes knitting here and there. They expect things like a real lunch on a plate when in my world a few crackers or a piece of fruit counts as a lunch and the time used for prep and clean up is better used for knitting. Anyway, I did get a bit done on the beaded socks. The pattern is Ein Himmel voller Luftballons by Martina Kuppler.  I am knitting my socks top down using the charts and numbers from the pattern and adding a heel flap instead of a short row heel since it fits me better. The yarn is String Theory Caper sock in pewter. So far I am very pleased with everything about this pattern and yarn. I highly recommend both.

*This post is 2 hours late because of a school delay due to snow. I will be happy they did this in June when the last day of school is not extended by one day for today but right now I wish they had just called it a snow day and cancelled school all together.
