Finishing Contest
As you know, I have a new sweater for Rhinebeck. I’d also like to have new socks. And new fingerless mitts.
This is where I am on my Fallen Leaves Socks.
One sock finished and the second sock has about another 1.5 inches before I start the toe decreases.
This is where I am on Genmaicha.
One mitt finished and the second one is halfway through the cuff.
Both photos were taken yesterday at 4pm.
Let’s have a little contest, shall we? Leave me a comment guessing whether I’ll finish the socks, the mitts, both or neither. I’ll do a random drawing from all the correct guesses. The winner will get a little something from Rhinebeck.
Sound like fun? Get those guesses in by Sunday night at 9 pm Eastern time.

Oh, definitely both. 🙂 You’re speedy!
I love the heels on those socks – delightful.
A definite yes on the socks. As for the mitts, yes if you’re heading to Rhinebeck on Saturday but maybe not if you’re heading out tomorrow night. I’ll be there just during the day on Saturday, hope to see you!
I’m guessing you’ll get both done in plenty of time.
I have complete confidence in you! You’ll get them both done!
Have a great time! I wish I could be there.
Easy peasy. You’ll get them done. Unfortunately I won’t be there to see them 🙁 so I am glad I got to see you in NH. Have a great time!
Both of course, have a wonderful time.
I think you’ll finish both.
Both, but it’ll be a race to the end. Have fun this weekend!
Knowing what a productive knitter you are….both 🙂
Easy peasy! You’ll have them both done in plenty of time.
You will get them both finished! You are a fast knitter and have no multi-tasking issues.
See you at Rhinebeck! I am looking forward to it – it is my first time. Ah yes, a Rhinebeck Virgin!
You’re good. I say both. (And I’ll be checking too!)
I think you’ll finish the socks before you leave and will be tucking in the ends on the mitts as you pull into wherever you park at Rhinebeck!
Both!!
I have faith in you and I’m sure that you’ll finish both. There’s no stopping a determined knitter – especially when the finish line is in sight.
You’ll finish both – and those mitts are definatlely blue on this computer!! Have a teeeee-rrific time. Hugs and kisses to all!
I think you’ll finish both, with time to spare.
you’ll finish both. you’re a very fast knitter. love the mitts.
I say both will be done, but I think one of them will be down to the wire and will be finished en route.
I think the socks will be finished before you hit the road, and the mitt will be road knitting. Whether it gets finished before you get there depends on who’s driving!
Both 🙂
You’re such a speedy knitter, based on the frequency of FOs you show here….I’m betting you’ll get both of them done. Maybe one or the other will be finished on the way, but both will be done in time to wear them there!! Have a great time! 😀
If you leave work at 4, get throuugh dinner and sit down by 6 the socks can be done by 7. Then moving to the mitten you can knock those off by 10 if CSI isn’t a cliff hanger. Worst case you are doing mitten ribbing in the AM. Long story short. BOTH.
Definitely both so you’d better pack something else to knit for the ride there!
oh, you will finish both of them….most definitely!!!
OOh I’ll de-lurk for this one. Without a doubt, you’ll finish both! You’re a whizz on those teensy little needles!
I think you’ll definitely finish both in time. Have fun at Rhinebeck!
Definitely the socks, hopefully the mitts…
But definitely both by the time you need them at Rhinebeck!1
Definitely both. (You did tell me how fast the mitts go, after all.) See you at Rhinebeck! With chocolate. Cannot. wait.
Both, particularly if you don’t have to do the driving to New York.
You’ll finish and enjoy both!
My money is on you being able to get both done. I am guessing you actually finished that sock last night. 🙂
Well, of course you will finish the socks! Pick me, please!!!!
I think you will finish both. Nothing like some fun pressure to get the knitting done. I too am going to Rhinebeck and can’t wait.
Both!
Socks only, but you’ll finish the mitts while at Rhinebeck!
By now the sock is probably finished. How far is it to Rhinebeck? How much will you be driving? You’ll get them both done! I bet you knit faster under pressure!!! Have fun!!!
Both, of course.
By now, the sock is done and that leaves plenty of time for you to finish the mitt, wash and block them all and pack for Rhinebeck.
xo
I think you’ll more than likely finish both before you reach Rhinebeck and will have started a lovely scarf on the ride there.
Have fun! I am so hoping to get to Rhinebeck next year as I’ve never been to that festival.
Oh, definitely. I know you can finish them – just don’t work on those mystery socks!
No doubt, both.
Love the sock colors.
Wow, you’re moving right along. It’ll all get done, I’m sure!
Oh I think you’ll get both done, you crank projects out so fast! BTW, I’m a new commenter on your blog, having only discovered it a week or two ago. You’ve really inspired me to work on my knitting!
Another de-lurker, but long-time reader and fan . . .
I have the utmost confidence in your ability to finish both, Carole! The number of beautiful projects that you complete always amazes me!
You will definitely finish the socks. You might cut it close on the mitts, but I think you can do it. Are you driving or passengering to Rhinebeck?
I have absolute faith in you. Both is my guess. I’m guessing the socks are already done!!
You’ll finish the socks for sure – mitts if you don’t drive to NY.
You’ll finish both!
I need one piece of information. Are you driving to Rhinebeck, or passenger-ing?
In case we need to guess without that key bit of information, I say you’ll finish both, but you’ll be finishing (or at least weaving in ends) in the car on the way! 🙂
both, for sure – there are too many people thinking good “hurry, hurry” thoughts for you not to.
