Yarn Along - Is A Stash Buster

I can say that these projects are being made with yarn I had left over form previous ones.

I have wanted to try making sock two at a time. 

So I'm using 2 Socks at-a-Time, Toe-Up, Magic Loop by Very Pink Knits.

Here is a link to a youtube video

I haven't gotten very far as you can tell.

I also started some slipper using a new pattern and the yarn leftover from "the little dudes"

slippers, just didn't take a picture yet. I'll tell you more about this pattern and another one next week. There is more to it then just the pattern and I would like to get all my facts straight and such.

Now for what I'm reading. It's not a novel or biography (which I love) No this is something that pleases my geek side. I had heard about this on TV and just knew I had to find it. 

And I have already used a few of the tips already.

This book if full of tips and trick you can use whether it's your phone, tablet, computer or camera and others.
