she's outta there!!!!!!!

i am finished with this semester!!  all papers have been reworked and submitted, all make-up work has been turned in.  i think that all of the non-knitting i've been up to may pay off with close to a 4.0 GPA for the semester.  finally, i can get back to knitting!!!!

i sent off my Sockapallooza pal's socks today...they get to go over the ocean.  i really hope that they make it to her! 
there heading over the ocean as you read this!here the socks are all finished up and done.  i'm pretty pleased with how they turned out.  and for any body that wants to know, you can totally knit the pompatomous socks with the magic loop technique.  whoot!

the sockapallooza socks represented the last thing that i had to knit, so i'm going to be doing some "me" knitting for a while.  tell me they're not lovely i've got the Mamluke socks from Folk Socks in mind.  they are so beautiful. see?  aren't they just gorgeous?  the characters near the toes and heals (not the diamond shapes) spell out Allah, and that's gotten me enamoured for some reason (i'm not Muslim, just a generally spiritual gal).  i'm also kicking around Calla from Magknits.  i've got the Svale, i just am sooo sock crazy....

I am so glad classes are almost over for me, too. However, I will probably nowhere near 4.0. Good job!

Calla is at the top of my to-knit list right now too, but like you I am stuck on socks. Although this is my first venture into sock knitting, so it's still in the whole new and exciting phase.

Those socks are gorgeous! If I made socks like that, I would either never take them off or be too afraid I would ruin them to wear them.
