Short Attention Span

It seems that I've caught a mild case of Second Sock Syndrome. The second monkey is coming along... just beyond the cuff. Nothing worth seeing that hasn't been seen with the first sock. The Kingstons are coming along as well as they're my "knitting in public" sock, id est on the bus, at the bus stop, or basically wherever I have to wait. Pure stockinette doesn't require much thought.

Now, because I have a short attention span and I like having projects across the difficulty spectrum, I've also started the Clessidra stockings by Gabriella Chiarenza. Since I'm too lazy to shave my legs (too much information?) and I'm horribly impatient and want to get these blogged, enjoy the work-in-progress as modeled by my Spotted Cow pint glass.

I apologize in advance for the crummy quality of the pictures. I take most of these with my cell phone.

Back
Crisscrossed hourglass cables on a purled background.


Left Side
Central cable as on front with a stockinette back toward the front (in the shadowy left of this picture) and a seed stitch band toward the back (right). The right side mirrors this.



Front
Seed stitch flanked by a single small cable on either side.
