It's October already!

Can you believe that it is October already? I've been slacking on the posts and the knitting because of this. I downloaded the free version before the trip and haven't been able to put it down.

I was making progresson Wisp, but the missed yo (yarn overs) on the lace edging really bothered me, so it has been frogged. Back to square one...Cast on...again...

Moving on, since I really want to pick up my knitting again. I've joined a knit along... more than one actually...

The first is the Through the Loops Sock KAL. I joined this last year and I loved the result. Kirsten releases a part of the pattern each week in October, so it really is a mystery. The great part of it is the parts are manageable, so each week, I was able to work on both sides of the sock and by the end of the month I had a completed pair. Here's a photo of the 2009 Mystery socks.

In addition, you all know about my ongoing hat projects... On Ravelry, I follow a group called Hats, Hats, Hats to keep a eye out for new hat patterns. For the month of October, there are two Hat-Alongs - one knit and one crochet. I joined both so I hope I can keep up! I'll post more about those once I cast on.
