I got my yarn for the replacement hat yesterday. Hopefully I'll have some time to cast on tomorrow (tonight is the late night of teaching, which means I get home, eat, stare at the TV for 20 minutes, and then go to bed). I started another hat, but am not sure that I like it, so that will go on hold for the replacement.


Yesterday was double package day as I got my package from the 80s TV Swap on Ravelry. My pal sent me the 1st season DVD of "Growing Pains" and yarn to make a lovely bulky scarf. I'll take pics and post them tomorrow (hopefully).


And lastly for knitting, I've been plugging away on a ribbed sock. Everything ribbed except the toe (yes, a ribbed short-row heel!... why? well, cause I was curious to see if it could be done). It is a super skinny looking sock because of all the ribbing. I got to work on it a bunch while waiting around yesterday. What is unfortuante is that I might not be able to enjoy the sock or any of my other hand knit socks in the forseeable future. The stupid eczema on my legs has reached new heights of horribleness (including waking up multiple times last night unable to sleep because of the insanity of the itchiness). Basically, I need several weeks of sitting in a vat of moisturizer. Right now at work, I am sitting with my pant legs pulled up over my knees and heaping gobs of moisturizer on my legs. I'm not itchy, but I hope no students need to come talk to me!
