Quick

It will be a quick one this morning.  I have a book I want to start this morning.

I got a good chunk of knitting done even though I did not spend much time knitting.

Making it past the heel is always nice.  I knit them using a double stranding of yarn and on my 2.5 mm needles, they end up good and firm.  The fabric is a bit stiffer than I like to knit but they do not wear out.  

I am hoping to get this pair done today.  

I did want to show a bit of an upgrade I made on my sock blocker.  

See that little notch at the ankle on the top of the foot?  When I am knitting from the toe up, measuring is not always the answer.  A garter toe is a very stretchy toe, so it helps to measure the sock foot when it is stretched out.  That notch is to tell me the foot is long enough.  

I generally only knit socks for me so I can do this on my blockers.  And that is it for today.  Quick.
