Well, I finished the ribbing and have switched to size 9 circs. I was distracted while trying to do the switch and it was NOT working well for me. It took me twice as long as I think it should have, but at least it's on there now. I was contemplating finding a different stitch pattern to use, but decided the k2tog, yo followed by a row of yo, k2tog would be easiest. I think it might be the right size this time with the 80 stitches I cast on, but it's still a little too early to call.
I successfully ignored the sock today. I had to walk by it several times and I still managed to not work on it. I was always better at writing papers with a very pressing deadline. Perhaps I will turn out to be a great pressure knitter too. Or else I just won't get them done on time and they can become a Christmas or birthday present. :) Sometimes I hate to admit that I want them done but lack the motivation to work on them. Oh well. It's my own issue to work on, I guess. I could easily finish the first one by Saturday if I just don't ignore it. That would give me a week to finish the mate and I usually bust out the second one a little faster than the first.
Who am I kidding? I really want to finish these. I just need to sleep better tonight and work on it tomorrow. A lot.
