Monday night found me all alone with Girly Girl. BF was traveling. The boys were with their father. So Wilma and I settled in for the night with some knitting and Netflix.
I had never seen The Da Vinci Code despite the fact that I loved the book by Dan Brown. It was the perfect thriller for a girls night in. Wilma slept by my feet while I knit and tried to remember the details of the book (which I read six years ago when it first came out). I remembered very little, so it was fun to see the movie. It was all brand new to me.
Fortunately, my knitting was not such a memory challenge for me. I haven't knit in three weeks, but I managed to pick up the Chutes & Ladders Socks by Danni Conway of Knitting Central and quickly pick up where I left off. Whew. At least some parts of my memory are still working. I was able to finish one leg and am nearly done with the K1, P1 cuff. I plan on taking it easy on the knitting. Despite the fact that I want to finish these today, I want to ease back into it. But hopefully you'll see these debuting as a Finishing Friday project very soon.
P.S. This is the first knitting picture with the new RED Canon PowerShot SD780 IS Digital Elph. Whew. That was a mouthful.
Looks like you are soaring two socks on circulars . So pretty! Glad the new camera is a great shot!

I loved both the book and the movie. I've just recently read Angels and Demons and want to go see that movie as well.
The socks look great! and I love your project bag too...it's so summery and bright!

Don't you just love a night of knitting! Sounds like a good time. It took a me few minutes to figure out who Wilma is, though!

I'm glad you enjoyed your girl's night off. That's how I like to look at it, nobody to worry abt or take care of. Great socks, they remind me of pumpkin filling!
