Yikes sock it to me...........

O.K. so here I am knitting socks day in day out. I swore I would never do them. I wondered why would anyone knit socks. Now lookie here......... what am I doing. Why, nice and portable, fun, great gifts. I don't know seems to be addicting. Scary. what a wonderful way to pass the time while waiting anywhere. So sock it to me socks lets get on with it.

OMG.............socks socks and more socks

Here I am its April 17th and I have been knitting socks, working on them daily. Why hummmmmmm tis portable and small to tote around. But wow is this really me??? The gal who swore NEVER NEVER to knit socks, yes tis me. Amazing, a reflection on the statement "never SAY never".

So I will knit inside,outside, up and down, left and right, round and round. Socks for you and socks for me, socks for all the family !

What a great day

Organize, organize

So the new years begun and I am getting my patterns all organized. Wow have I got a lot of patterns, too many for a life time. After doing a virtual study on how long my life could be- I now know that I will never accomplish all the knitting I would like to. So I hope the Lord above will have a place for me to knit royal garments and goodies to beautify heaven. I hope to spend many hours in the new year creating awesome works of art to wear, and share. I've also organized my stash and have found some wonderful fibers that I forgot that I had purchased. I am blessed beyond measure. On with the show......knit one purl two......here we go.

Knitting on New Years Eve better than a drink anyday

Tonight many people are toasting in the New Year, as for me it will be with Dick Clark and Jimmie Dale. Oh and a set of knitting needles and yarn. Now that's what I call bliss. Did I forget a fire in the fireplace with the dog on her bed. I feel blessed in so many ways.

Good bye old year, welcome in New.

year end......resolutions

Well another year is almost to the close, projects mostly completed. A few to finish. A great year of learning. I could not of asked for a better time in Washington. What a blessing each and every knitter was to me. I am inspired, rejuvenated and looking forward to growing more and more. I am looking forward to Stitches West, Jon will have a booth and introduce his wares to the knitters of the west coast. How exciting !!! Life is good, friends and family are close and dear.

Now to begin................................another project

The knitter's Crunch

With Christmas around the corner it's time to knit, knit, knit----that's what I am doing. The only problem is the tree isn't up, the BIG question is will it get up????? I just can't seem to get it together. This is the first year I have felt this way. I ming is a confusion of knit purl and yarn overs.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Done

Yep the sock is done, not perfect, but DONE. Now to do the mate. The heel ended up to be done in a kitchner stitch with a mistake or two. Not to fear it is done and will not be frogged again EVER !!!!

To be continued on the other foot.

Yipes !!!
