I really don’t mind. We needed a good soaking rain. It has been looking like summer in California where it didn’t rain at all. There was a heavy rain one day the first summer I lived there. People talked about it for a good year afterward. They may have talked longer. I had left my husband by then and returned to sanity. It’s not that I didn’t like California. It was my husband that I didn’t like.
These are the Hopscotch socks from Think Outside the Sox. This pattern was easy to remember so it knitted quickly. I used my favorite heel flap which I used in my Red White and Blue socks. I did not like the K2tog, yo at the toes so I redid it plain. Also, mine are a bit shorter. These are for summer and I would have made them even shorter if I had thought about it earlier. I used Panda Silk from Crystal Palace. The yarn is light and wonderfully soft. I would definitely buy it again.
I’m hoping to start my sweater by the weekend.
