After finishing the heel flap, turning the heel, and picking up stitches along the heel flap, I noticed a problem. I didn&#8217;t have the right number of stitches along the pattern side of the sock. It turns out that I missed a yarn over in the pattern when I started knitting on Wednesday night. Most of my knitting time this weekend was actually spent un-knitting. Grrrr. From now on, I will be taking something that requires a little less thought as my travel projects, no matter what the (self imposed) deadline.<\/p>\n<p>BTW, the pattern is Ribbed Lace from <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Sensational-Knitted-Socks-Charlene-Schurch\/dp\/1564775704\/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1211198810&amp;sr=8-1\">SKS<\/a>, with the sock yarn from <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.knitswithsticks.com\">Sheila<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>That said, I did get something accomplished this weekend:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.textillian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/sundress-screaming-pink.jpg\" title=\"Screaming pink sundress with short pants\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.textillian.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/05\/sundress-screaming-pink.thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"Screaming pink sundress with short pants\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I got the first of the dresses done. Actually, I still have to do the buttonholes on it, but I have to get the buttons first. I will review it further when I get the other dress done. Let&#8217;s just say that at the moment, it is still a learning process for me, but that was not unanticipated. It&#8217;s made to fit 3 to 6 months, and as long as you give it too close of an inspection, it looks pretty nice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And two steps back.
