Froggage required

I knit a few more rows on the Jaywalkers last night at the SnB and realized that the ankle really is too tight. i'll frog back to to the heel part and redo it with 2.5mm needles. I learned about another SnB in the area from one of the new knitters who came yesterday. This SnB meets on Monday nights - i see some knitter stalking in the near future. LOL.

i've also started bagging up my sock yarns into paper bags for the personal sock club. i'm still not sure how i am going to coordinate this with the BMFA and the Sunshine Yarns sock clubs but i want the personal one to take priority. Maybe i can do the non-personal sock clubs after i finish the personal one or skip the personal one on months when i get the other sock clubs. hmmm...

as for the Sunshine Yarns sock yarn...so far i've only tried the Soft and the Twist yarn bases and i have to admit i'm not impressed with either. Maybe the Classic yarn base will be better - though i'm not sure how the sock club works in regards to which yarn base is used. The colorways are gorgeous including the first club yarn i received in October but i hope that a different yarn base is used for the next club yarn. That said, Dani has some GORGEOUS superwash merino rovings and is willing to do a special order for me for a sold out color. WOOT!
