I'm done day 12 of my advent hat with plenty of hours left to work on it while watching the finale of Finding Mr. Christmas season 2. (If you enjoy Hallmark holiday movies and reality shows, check it out.)

And I've validated an annoying Salesforce package (why does intelligence view have to be on to deploy?). Which hopefully means an easier workday tomorrow.

It's only noon. So far a good day.

Finished the gusset on advent sock 2 and I'm done day 20 of the stripes. At this rate I'll probably have a pair of advent socks this weekend and be casting on an advent hat.

Wove in the ends of my right sock last night. I'm re-knitting the cuff for the left sock today. Then I'll be starting day 13 of my stripes.

It's nice to be this far ahead of my advent. I have enough yarn to also knit an advent sock head hat. Maybe I'll get that in before x-mas so my head and toes are cozy.

Need to kitchner my toe and the first advent sock is done. I should have knit this in 66 stitch rounds instead of 64, maybe adding a row or two to my gusset, but it otherwise feels great. If I measured correctly, I would have started the heel two stripes earlier. I ended up doing 12 rows of my contrasting white before starting the toe. Oops.

Knit 3 days (6 stripes) of my advent already. I'm loving the colors so much. And the yarn itself feels lovely. This is gonna be a good pair of socks.

I'm knitting advent socks this year. I cast on the cuff last night in the contrasting mini. Been doing other crafts all month leading up to this and I'm so so happy to be back to my yarn and needles.

Trying shortie circulars for the first time has been a choice though. I didn't realize how much of my knitting was done by pinky fingers. I use a Norwegian purl and I'm really not enjoying them for that. I'm hoping that changes with practice. But I think I'll enjoy stockinette when I get to the stripes.
