On the Needles:
Gigi is working on the Honeycomb Socks (from the Little Box of Socks) with Day-Glo Opal and Black Wildfoote. She's also working on a snickerdoodle sock.
Jasmin continues to work on the items she started last week. This week, Jasmin finished Pair #5 of the Black Sock Project
for Andrew. Jasmin has cast on another pair of vintage Lisa Souza socks
in the colorway "Mahogany", in Serrano. Jasmin continues to work on her
Pride Sweater. She's also plugging along on her Mesmer socks.
Gigi is stumbling on her knitting progress in favor of reading the Twilight series. Gigi, Jasmin, Tika, and their entourage went to see Twilight tonight, and Jasmin finished sock #1 of the Yucatan Orchid socks.
Jasmin has been working on her Santa Fe wrap. She has also finished spinning and plying her "Atlantis" sock yarn, from Crown Mountain. Jasmin has also been making some progress on the Maude vest.
Mother Knows Best:
Jasmin decided to knit on her Maude vest while watching a local
production of The Nutcracker. This segment is about knitting stripes in
the dark.

When Knitting Attacks:
Gigi's Snickerdoodle socks bite back.
Holidays with the Knitmore Girls:
Gigi wants to knit miniature versions of the year's projects as
ornaments for her tree. Jasmin prefers a simpler way - putting odds and
ends of yarn into glass ornaments. Leftover yarn can be used to make
decorative tamari balls.
Jasmin reminisces about knitting baby booties out of 50 Baby Booties to Knit and using them as decorative tree ornaments.
