All the other stuff is beautiful too! I couldn't EE dye anything this year. I have a rule that if what I dyed the year before isn't spun up, I can't dye any new stuff. But what you've done has inspired me to fix up my wheel and get spinning. I still have two boxes of dye waiting to be used. I never said I wouldn't buy extra dyes! ;-) My word I think I’ve found someone that knits more than me! :-D That’s a lot of socks you’ve got going!!! All the other stuff is beautiful too!

How did you manage to find a sock knitter? Those are pretty rare, aren’t they?

Have you thought about making mitts? I can go into a store and buy socks, but not mitts. And you wouldn’t have to weave the toe.

Hey that's cheating! Just kidding...didn't know those even existed. I can't "continental." when I first taught myself to knit in January I tried that way first because it made more sense but my left hand wouldn't cooperate so I plod along the other way. Lots of pretty socks on your page here. Sock machine! Hey that’s cheating! Just kidding…didn’t know those even existed.
