Grey Regia's - DONE!

The yarn came in the mail from www.kirtlandyarnbarn.com (very nice; prompt service) and I was able to finish that second sock within an hour.

The finished pair:

And here he is modeling them:

Would you believe - the yarn that came in the mail today is the same dye lot as the first skein!

Last night, I finished the first sleeve on Lochinver, picked up the stitches for the second sleeve and am about four rows into it. On the cuff, I used a tubular cast-off, instructions courtesy of Flora from Brazil. This makes a beautiful and strong edge - just like a store-bought sweater. I'm kind of psyched about it!

This morning I was able to knit a couple inches of the leg on the second Wildfoote sock while at the basketball tournament. It's not particularly pictureworthy at present.

This has been the most productive 24-hour period of knitting I've had in quite some time!
