Monkeypalooooza and Sorta Summer of Socks

Img_0697 One little Monkey on the Adirondack chair means that I finished my first sock of the summer–of course it was well underway before summer began, but it’s still progress on my SOS goals.  This little Monkey means I"m halfway done with my Sockapalooooza socks.  I don’t want to be knitting until the last possible moment like I did for last year’s Sockapaloooza.

I"m about to mix a cocktail and cast on for a second Monkey.  Can I go out on a limb (get it?) and say that I aim to have sock two done in a week?  Anyone want to make a bet on that?  I’m not sure I can do it, but I’m gonna give speed sock knitting a try.  Maybe someday I can churn out socks like a ferret on crack.

  1. Great Monkey! I love the contrast heel, cuff and toe!
    I’ll bet you can get the second one done in a week! All you need is a cocktail and a comfy Adirondack chair!

  2. I have just decided that I will always be a slow sock knitter. You know I started reading A Long Way Down and now I have no idea where I put that book. I guess that means I have too many books
