I know that last week I mentioned I’d post up a picture of the sock I started at the Henry Rollins Spoken Word event. Since I cast off my self-designed socks, I’ve been working on these almost exclusively, and the colours are ridiculously fun. I’ve just turned the heel on sock #1, and am about to start the leg.
As an aside, I *did* finish the socks I’m designing, but I think I knit the lace pattern upside-down. So I may need to bust out yet another pair of lace socks. Not that there’s anything wrong with this…but I may need to order in the right yarn for the job. Wonder if I can get my hands on a skein of Lorna’s Laces “Bigger on the inside” colourway? Though, really, weeping angels really should be grey…
Anyhow, while I was outside taking sock pictures, I also caught a few snaps of the garden. This is another “work in progress”, as I haven’t gotten to weeding as much as I should.
And yes. There *is* a guy crawling out of our garden! His name is Bob (though we’re considering renaming him Pete). He’s our Garden Zombie.
I’m hoping none of the neighbourhood kids have bedroom windows that overlook our garden…
We need to have a “weeding” barbeque! I have Irises for you too 🙂
…and I need to pick up the bike… ;D
You definitely need to pick up the bike, and when we both have time we should do some weeding and fooding. We’ll have to see where we can fit the irises 🙂
Zombie Guy does look kinda like a Bob to me. Reminds me of a line from Jonathan Coulton’s “Re: Your Brains” – “Heya Bob, it’s Tom, from the office down the hall…”
I think that’s somehow the reason “Bob” got into our minds. But when he’s in the garden, “Pete” suits him even better 😉
