Latest knit project...

I've been working on two toe up socks on one long circular, the heels gave me a friggin head ache but now I just need to finish ribbing to knee high. I've been doing little projects while I work on that just to break up the monotony of the ribbing and yesterday I gave working with two colours my first try. I found a cute chart, then just decided to come up with my own item to use it on. There was a pattern for a wrist warmer but it was worked flat then seamed and my seams are complete suck so i wanted to work it in the round. I tried one on double pointed needles with just one design on one side and it sucked. It was all warped and puckered because I was just bringing the second colour back to the start of the design... so I decided to put in two of the design and carry the second colour around. I am so delighted with the results. YARRRRRRRRRRrrrrnnnn! Piratey and knitty. lol.
