This is how Second Sock Syndrome happens…..

I am so determined to not have SSS with this pair of socks. I have made good progress considering the presence of The Toddler and the Harry Potter book. where-the-hearts-are.jpg
I am enjoying the angora so much, and they are so pretty. Well I was pretty determined anyway. Until…..
I entered my LYS tonight for knit-night (okay I actually show up in the afternoon and make like a 7 hour thing out of it). And I as usual peruse the inventory. I look at the Manos, I look at the mohair, I wander to the sock yarn, only looking of course! Then I look at the stuff that is so interesting but just doesn’t fit into any idea I am currently fondling. All of a sudden one of these yarns the Anny Blatt Mugues *clicks* (quite loudly). WOW this will look AWESOME with that Sherbet STR I’ve been carting around in my bag for 5 weeks! I just don’t know if I can wait to finish the Heart sock then another one before I put this Muguet with the STR. I can always knit the other sock later, right? Of course I will come back to it. I would never knit just one sock. Of course I used to only have ONE thing on the needles at a time EVER, maybe I should proceed with caution.

    Hey, just buy more sock needles. If you wait long enough on that second sock, it will seem like new again!

    I still have a sock waiting for a partner…and now I’m not sure where the pattern is or what needle size I used (since of course I didn’t use the same yarn or needle as in the pattern). But I have one lovely sock waiting to go to the person it was made for….one day.
