Wednesday already and time once again for Tami's WIP Wednesday show and tell . Wow , a week goes by quickly . Head on over to Tami's to check out what others are working on . You'll be inspired .
Eli's cardi is soooo close to being finished . I just didn't have the energy last night , this cold is wearing me out . This morning I put in a good effort , but seriously , I'm my own worst enemy when it comes to finishing . I seamed and ripped a few times before I was satisfied . One sleeve left to do . Hopefully this will be ready for it's closeup for FO Friday .
Here's the current WIP , a pair of socks for DH Mike , who's been hinting lately that with the cool weather coming he 'd really love to have some new hand knit socks . He even pointed out the yarn that he thought I should use . What's a knitter to do , but cast on . I really should knit more socks for him , but man size socks are so big and I have a short attention span . These will keep him happy for a bit ;-) .Till next time have a good rest of the day !

Finishing is always hard to do. I sure hope you get feeling better soon!
Hmm, picking out the yarn too? That's a pretty strong hint! Looks like he's in luck because that socks really progressing!
Now take it easy and get better!
Hope you feel better soon lady. I'm just getting over a cold too so I know how you feel.
Love the red sweater! Hope it behaves well enough to take the stage on Friday. And your hubby is one lucky guy. Boy socks take F O R E V E R to knit!
You will get there. Just go slow and do your best. My husband will likely never get another pair of hand knit socks. I just don't like knitting socks anymore. All those sts on Worsted weight yarn would give me a sweater! OK, maybe not a sweater, but maybe a shawl.
I know what you mean about man sized socks ;) My boyfriend has one and a quarter socks and I am struggling to find the motivation to finish the second one!
I totally agree about the man size socks. Big and my DH only wants grey ones. Booooring!
I know about big men feet, lol. My Hubs wears 13s, and he has only been wearing hand knit socks lately. He's diabetic and finds store bought socks bother his legs.
