out with the old, in with the new
May 16, 2007
remember the saddest thing ever? well, time has helped. last night as susan and i sat knitting, me on my new socks and susan on her first pair of socks, i decided to not darn my rock star socks. instead, this one (with the hole) will be frogged and knit into baby socks if ever we have a wee one.
the other one is a gift for susan’s husband gregg who has always loved these socks. she and her two girls are going to make it into a sock puppet that reminds papa to not take things too seriously. seems like the perfect solution to me!
p.s. no, i did not only get cast-on last night…. i just decided with the stretch in the fabric it was too big. destined to be stockingnet stitch and picot edged on size 2 needles, with shortrow heels and toes using hello yarn’s sock ratio reinforced with maybe some navy sock yarn? i’ve always loved how knitting iris reinforces her heels and toes with extra sock yarn hanging around.
