Holes in Dad's Socks

I struggle along with Christmas looming, frogging Dad's Socks and losing track of the row count. I developed holes. This didn't happen with my other pattern. I think it has something to do with wrapping during a short row. I am wondering if I will finish them on time. So...for a nice distraction I have joined a new KAL, a secret pal exchange, and a contest! Whitney, over at About Time is hosting the Mrs. B KAL. We are making the elegant Mrs. Beeton wrist warmers pattern in the new Knitty. They really are beautiful and should be fun to knit. With beads! I really hope to fit them in. There's a question contest at Katie's Knit Knat. Every couple days she asks a question and the answers are great. I'm am enjoying all the input. I also joined the Felted SP2 which is an offshoot of the Felted Bag KAL. That won't start until January, but I made some buttons for it. Fiddling on my computer is a great distraction from all the things I should be doing. Teaching my students at my job to knit is going well. They begged to take their knitting home to work on it, so I let them. They even made me a card with their picture and gave me a pencil to thank me for helping them learn to knit. Now how sweet is that?! It's time to go back and face Dad's Socks. One way or another...I will finish those puppies!
