Now dear digicam....

This is the second time you disappear just when I need you to take pics of the Lucioles mitts. It is getting kinda annoying, you know ? So get back to my desk NOW, will you ?

ETA1 : Now, that's a good digicam !

ETA2 : PLEASE DON'T DIIIIIIIE !

At last !

So I was nice to the digicam and the digicam was nice to me, and thus, I have pictures to share !

The purple Lucioles mitts :


And the beginning of the Chaos Socks :

I'm working the cables according to my dice like in Knitty's Chaos sweater, though I have slightly modified it :
Roll a 1 or 2 : Slip next 2 sts to cable needle and hold to front of work, k2, k2 from cable needle.
Roll a 3 or 4 : Slip next 2 sts to cable needle and hold to back of work, k2, k2 from cable needle.
Roll a 5 or 6 : K2
I'm making little use of all the fancy dices I have in the house...
I'm about to start with the short row heels and am a bit scared. Although my mind has been working on this all night and made me dream of exactly how to work the short rows and wrap the thread. Hello mind, would you please turn off just a little bit now and then ?

But now that the flat is liveable again (i.e. clean, and all the Christmas stuff has been put away) I'm earnestly going back to sewing. I WILL finish this petticoat !
