Christmas - 22

Today is my birthday! I'm 22 + 10! I had a mix of bad and good today. The good was Indian food for dinner and chocolate birthday cupcakes at work. The bad include the rain, badly isolated windows that left a puddle of water in my living room (and on my brand new camera, thankfully it's not damaged) and the Habs who are losing 0-3 midway through the first period.

Oh, and something else that is good: sock pattern advent calendar time!

December 3
Pattern: Double Eyelet Rib Toe-up Socks, by Wendy Johnson.
Because it's my birthday, I wanted to choose one of my favourite sock patterns. I've wanted to knit this one for a long time (I even know which yarn I'll use), but I've never made toe-ups before and I feel I'm not going to like it as much as cuff-down. But we'll see. I really want to make them sometime in 2010.
You can find it for free on the Ravelry page or here.

I'm a day late, but HAPPY BIRTHDAY CAROLINE!!!

The sock pattern advent calendar is a great idea, looking forwards to see what you link to next!

Have a great "still-birthday-weekend"!
