With the holidays rapidly approaching, I started to concentrate on my socks list. I knit on them in the car, at our Thursday night get-togethers at the store, during my Monday night visits with the kids, during my monthly visits with family, while watching television … I am sure you get the idea. This is the result — a full week before Christmas!
Mostly these are plain socks. When I could no longer tolerate the thought of yet another plain sock, I went wild and made a pattern. I thought I had strayed more than I did, but apparently only once. I can say that the first pair for 2024 is NOT plain — and one of the pair is already finished!
Here you see some Regia Tutti-Frutti, KFI Indulgence, Sandnes Garn Tresko, Laines du Nord Paint Sock, Berroco Comfort Sock, Urth Yarns Merino Sock and Wisdom Yarns Wacki Saki. All but one came from my store — Never Enough Wool. Who knew we had such a wide selection?!?
My little men have reached the size where they need more than the residual wool from an adult pair. Soon, at the rate they are growing, they will need their own skein!
My daughter has been safely delivered of a beautiful baby girl, and I am so totally enamoured. When my children were babies, I was a young and nervous mother. Now that I am the grandmother, I can totally relax and enjoy the time with them. I plan to do so, as much as my daughter allows.
If I do not get back here before Christmas (face it, the odds are not in my favour!), I hope that each of you have a lovely holiday season spent with your loved ones and friends.
