Summer summer summer

There's a contest at Skeins her way. It's the annual "List your summer goals" contest! And because I like lists, I'm entering!

I'm not going to set too many goals because I've been in a knitting slump for most of the year and I don't know if I'll ever come out of it. Still, I have goals:

1. Knit 2-3 pairs of socks
2. Finish the Cardigan for Merry
3. Knit (or at least begin to knit) an Alan Dart toy

That's it!

In other news, I am terribly frustrated with the Cable Net socks. I've now knit the leg twice and it just doesn't work. My gauge changed and the sock is way too big. I thought I probably knit the wrong size by accident so I tried again with the smaller size and it was way too small. I'm so frustrated that I don't even want to look at the yarn anymore. I think Cable Net sock #1 won't ever have a mate.
