On Friday, I looked through my new Sock Knitting Companion book and determined I wanted to do toe-up socks with a plain toe, no wraps, etc. I then saw I needed waste yarn for the provisional cast on, and thus ended Friday night.
On Saturday night, I cast on and got through the toe (badly) and started a few rounds. However, whatever I did, I have to purl everything instead of knit. Le sigh.
On Sunday morning, I put the sock next to my living room TV to be knit on when I have free moments. This morning, it was watching This Week with George S. I had 20 minutes and so I knit. I watch the evening news most nights, so I hope to get in at least 15 minutes a day during the mindless part of the sock.
When it becomes time to pay attention again (the heel), I will dedicate time to the effort. I am hoping that by using this found time, I will get 1 sock done per month. Which means I should have new Easter socks I guess.
