bleck weekend

I had to leave these:

(the cat and the socks, not the legs) to head to the main campus of my work-school for a two day workshop this weekend.

The socks:

Glynis, from Cookie A's Book.
Yarn: Alpaca with a Twist Socrates from The Loopy Ewe
Verdict: I love the yarn, super soft and cuddly, but the bamboo content made it a touch too splitty to do any sort of a complicated pattern that may or my not have required un-knitting of one form or another. But I would definitely recommend the yarn for non-complicated patterns.

Other than that, my head is all 'splodey from everything that's going on. 'splodey heads and leaving the cat behind make me cranky. I do not like having to work all weekend and leave the cat behind.
