\"\"I stayed out way too late for a school night last Tuesday. Deborah and her husband invited me over for dinner and knitting to celebrate her Birthday! Her husband made Mac and Cheese, roasted broccoli and chicken satay! I\u2019d never tried satay before and it was delicious. Bring on the peanut sauce, I say! The Mac and Cheese<\/a> was so good I had a second helping for “dessert” and then asked for the recipe. <\/br>
\nI may or may not have accidentally dripped peanut sauce on my Nain sock, then licked it off because that seemed like the quickest way to remedy the situation. I was not wrong.
\n\"\"
\nThis couple acted like people spreading knitting around their plates and licking sauce off a sock is an everyday occurrence.
\n<\/br>I managed to only huff the tiny bundt cakes that were dessert. Yay me!!! No desserts til my jeans fit! I so appreciate them being supportive and not trying to peer pressure me into sugar!
\n<\/br>Deborah and I each managed to cast on Silk Road Socks<\/a>. Overachiever that she is, she managed to cast on more projects after I left! I started Usak and Nain. For the record, I knit Nain a size up from my usual because the stitch pattern is not stretchy. It is gorgeous! Yarn is Quince & Co. Tern (75% Wool, 25% Silk) in the Beach Glass colorway. Tern has amazing stitch definition.<\/br>
\nUsak appeals because it flies off the needles once you get through the decorative cuff. Yarn is Seven Sisters Arts Meridian (75% Merino, 25% Nylon) in the Curry colorway. I’m terribly impressed with Seven Sisters Arts yarn<\/a> if you happen to be in the market to enhance your stash.
\n<\/br>Deborah cast on Mood socks with Intrepid Otter TWIST! in the Jenny colorway (blue\/gray) and
\nLycaena virgaureae socks (from Knitters Curiosity Cabinet II) in Wollewien Handgefarbte Sockenwolle (pink).
\n<\/br>Deborah is @dcbritter if you stack your Instagram feed with knitters as I do. I look forward to hanging out with these peeps again soon. I’ll try not to spill anything on the wool next time!
