I did it… I pulled out the Supersock, did a quick swatch, and cast on for the Dublin Bay socks. And now, after I got almost an inch of ribbing done last night, now I am thinking of ripping it out and using the Twisted German cast on.

I had not heard of this cast on until reading The Knitting Biologist‘s post today. The whole time I was knitting my ribbing last night, I kept thinking to myself that my cast on looked crappy (I used the knitted cast on instead of my usual cable cast on). It looks all loosey-goosey compared to the ribbing. I wanted an elastic cast on edge, not one that will fall down.

So, out it will come tonight. And I’ll get to try my hand at a new technique.

The Husband has gone out to dinner with people from work tonight. I fended for myself with Mu Shu chicken… tasty. I want to knit, but I don’t want to knit on either of the projects I currently have on the needles (The Third Incarnation and The Husband socks). What’s funny is I’m thinking of starting another pair of socks. I have a skein of Cherry Tree Hill Supersock in Birches and a copy of the Dublin Bay socks….hmmm….

Okay… that was greatly disturbing. My brain was just derailed from normal thought by a commercial for the new Charmin wet wipes — “The cleaner clean.” The truely creepy part was the commercial showing someone putting toothpaste on the back of their hand then trying to wipe it off with regular tolietpaper…. *ugh*

Must go wash brain now…
