Well, I restarted the socks. I am getting holes in the heel, so I will rip out and try again. I may dig out some worsted weight this weekend and just practice heels and see where I am going wrong. My software came but I haven't installed any of it yet. I was wrong about my mothers sweater. Right now, I have about 75 rows left. When I wrote the last post, is was most likely closer to 85-90. I have four more rows until all the sleeve stitches are added and an inch or two into that I get to start the v-neck so that will make me want to move quicker. Nothing like decreasing all the time to make it move a little.
