ianukIt rains and pours at work for issues usually, tuesday being no exception. Had another manufacturing line at a stop due to a issue. Got the issue figured out (the why) but not the how. Hmmm...gonna dig at people today about that and get us moving again. Luckily the new desk is right around the corner from the machining cell they are built at. All good. Gonna nip that in the bud this AM and then work on other things back at the old desk.
Got my heel flap done and then was utterly confused on the turning the heel of the sock directions. I understand what it is doing but I can't figure out what to do with the stitches I have. I have more than the pattern called for, cause I have a larger foot. Gonna hit the internet for hopefully some visuals since that is the part I'm confused on. Anybody got any good online help? If all else fails, I'll be at knit night late tonight and should be able to get help there.
EDIT: 730am - Looked on Knitting Help and now I get it what they mean by knitting or purling over the "gap" aha! Okay.
Then it was on to painting. These leaves will drive me bonkers but I finally got the hang of them, I think. Sioux has the scroll now and hopefully when I get it back on Thursday only a few more things will need to be done and I can get the inkwork done and then hand it over to Ari for finishing. I have lots of things to do this weekend and I my 3 days to do them. Looks like I might have a work trip on the 8th to VA but we shall see if that pans out. Gonna hopefully find out today or tomorrow.
Continued in High Whorling and its less preachy but she does have some odd opinions. In the fiber prep section and that has been helpful though which is good...though I wish the book was more on the techniques of top whorl versus general fiber texts. Probably finish the book by friday and start the next in the pile.
