Sock a go go

So started making some socks, out of sock yarn (the green sock yarn I got at the Madrona convention).  Actually going to make a nice garment.  And the whole twisting thing starts happening again.  I'm not letting it go this time, it's pissing me off, it's going to ruin something, GAH.

So I get on ravelry and ask and TA DA problem fixed.  it took a little explaining, and then I thought I'd have to start knitting into my stitches like everyone else does, but I like doing it my way, even if it's wrong.  But no, it's fixed, I just have to throw my yarn the opposite direction before kniting/purling it.  Well, pick it the opposite way, cus I don't throw.  Now I can't wait to show Margarita so she can start working on that owl hat she frogged cus it was off the bias, and I can make that wig thing, and .... all sorts of awesomeness.

I really wish Margarita was here tonight, cus the boys are going out and I'm going to be lonely, and i really feel like knitting and hanging out with someone who actually wants to hang with me, is actually excited about it, and someone who can get all excited over my new yarn with me.  But no...as usual.
