Finished Socks!

Socks on Hubby's Feet I've finally finished hubby's socks, and these fit him perfectly. He assures me that these feel quite comfortable. Now, I need to wash and block these, and put away for fall. I'm going to have to spin up more yarn in the meantime, because I know that he'll wear these out before the cold season is over.

Now, I need to get started on my mother's socks. I have a few patterns that I want to take a look at. I'm thinking, some sort of ribbed socks, or lace socks. I have two skeins of red Dale Baby Ull yarns for this. It'll be interesting to see how this yarn holds up when used for socks - the weight certainly is appropriate enough.

Yes, it's still hot as hades here but it's supposed to cool down next week. I've been trying to stay cool in the meantime. I'm hoping we get a nice thunderstorm tonite or tomorrow - hold the wind, please. And, I heard back from the director with whom I'd interviewed for a position last Monday; apparently they've decided to continue their candidate search because they don't feel I would be a good match for their department. Sigh . . . I know that I can do this work, based on what I'd seen of the website and some of the code they'd showed me. It's getting a bit frustrating.

I did go out and get myself another domain, and space on a cheap hosting service where I can host my ColdFusion codes. At a later date I'll put up my knitting app there for demo purposes, and to show potential employers what I can do, especially since I can't use the code samples I'd created at my previous job due to the confidentiality agreement I signed.
