She's back.
Was just not feelin' the 'I want to blog' thing. Don't know if the blog mojo is back, so I might be posting some place holders like this for a while.
Knitting
SIL's Poems socks are done and they're just waiting for Thanksgiving to be delivered. I've cast on for 2 more pair. A pair for me using Austerman Step yarn in the Vulkan colorway. The built-in stripes are several rounds wide and have a bit of color blending between. The pattern for this is the Yarrow Rib from Nancy Bush's book Knitting Vintage Socks.
And a pair for Mr WK using some leftover Mountain Colors Barefoot in a shades of very dark blue colorway. Just a simple k2, p2 ribbing. The yarn is so dark that I didn't want to fight the yarn to try to see what I was knitting, particularly if I have to go back and fix something.
Shooting
We've shot several IDPA matches and Mr WK did another 3-gun in October. Our outdoor matches at Corndodger Station are done until spring but we're shooting an IDPA match once a month at the outdoor range in Topeka.. And there's been lots of casual for fun shooting, too. No new guns but we've picked up some new toys for our carbines. I finally have the ambi mag release I've wanted for over a year now. I also added a Magpul angled fore-grip and a smaller pistol grip on mine. Mr WK got a new smaller hand guard for his.
And nothing new on the job front. The temp job was 3 weeks and nothing since.
So basically since I posted the last time; lotsa books read, lotsa stitches and lotsa ammo being loaded and unloaded.

Parting Shot: "Why are the only two options always a behemoth government program or the guy dies?"
