I finished one sock. It was fun to make. The yarn is a bit wonky, but it should soften after washing.The yarn is 30% nylon so I am assuming they will last. The yarn over have me worried. Maybe I will give them to someone and let them worry about it.
I spent a long time going through the new software and moving things around to where I liked them. I have a better understanding of what it can do and I am beginning to like it.
I got this from my children. It’s really great because it is actually five potted flowers that I can plant outside and enjoy for months to come. Do they know me or what?
I have never been big on Mother’s Day and they know it, but sometimes I get something neat like this and that what makes it really special. When they were little, I didn’t really have any money for extras. We celebrated birthdays and Christmas and I made them up for Halloween. I told them that I knew they loved me as much as I loved them and gifts were not necessary. When they started school, they brought me homemade cards that I still have ‘somewhere’.
Are those walls too pink? They make me feel happy. It beats the crap out of the nothing color that was up there before.
Isn’t this a great card? Socks are very important to me. I have two drawers of them. I can’t stand getting my feet dirty.
Now she’s catching up on her sleep.
Here is how it looked this afternoon.
These awards are not in order of importance. It would cause me to think and I have decided not to do that today.
Look at this hole. I really like these socks. So—-do I take them apart back to the heel or patch it? I think this is going to be left for summer.
The socks were a pair I started last summer, but forgot about until I was looking for yarn. The mittens were made from Lion Brand yarn that I think my mother had. It said machine washable and dryable on the label. It was the only kind she would use. They are thick and soft so I hope they make someone happy. Now I can get back to my daughter’s tunic. The reindeer are also about done, but I am not looking forward to putting them all together. It will be worth it. They really look good.
Here are my oldest and newest Haflingers. I love these shoes. They were made for me. The arch is perfect. I can put on a brand new pair and wear them all day like they were my oldest. That includes walking down to the horse farm with my goofy dog. I wonder how long I can go without scraping them. I bought two pair because that’s what they had on sale in my size.
