MARCH SOCKS

Hello All - These socks were made with Mountain Colors Bearfoot yarn in Steelhead. I used size 2 needs on the leg and size 1 on the foot. The pattern I used was Cobblestone from The Sock Journal. It was a lot of fun and is very comfortable. These are for me!

Ryan's Sweater

Finished just in time for Easter!!!! It was suppose to have a bunny on the front but then I dedided Ryan wouldn't be able to wear it much (and his Mom agreed!) so instead -viola - stripes. The blue will really look great with his eyes!

Busy, busy girl...

Also finished a sweater for my friend's new granddaughter - Simone Rose. Love the pattern! Worked on it when we went to Hawaii so it has been done for awhile...except for sewing it together. I can drag my rear on that forever.

Busy Girl

I just finished my February socks for SAM 5 and Ravelry 2008 Sock Knitalong. The socks are made using Dream In Color Smooshy sock yarn in Wisterious - absolutely gorgeous colors!!! I used the Garter Rib pattern in Charlene Schurch's Sensational Knitted Socks book - It was a great pattern and her book is filled with all kinds of great information - including losing the gap at the top of the gusset! Yahoo. I made them for my Mom for her birthday!

JANUARY SOCKS...SMALL FEET!

The socks I knit as my January Socks are for my grandson, Ryan. I used Buttons Yarn and an Ann Norling pattern. I had high hopes of making a pair of socks for my mom as my January socks, using Dream in Color yarn and a pattern from the Sensational Socks book. But between my mom going in the hospital, being layed off from a civil engineering firm and having to find a new job it just didn't happen. (I am now working as a receptionist at a small animal hospital which I've done before and loved.)

2008 - whack, whack...ouch!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Hope 2008 will be a great year for all! Good Luck that your year will be filled with all the things you love to do! I am signed up on several sock KAL's so I've got my work (ahhhh, if only work could be this much fun!) cut out for me. Starting a new pair of socks tonight so pictures should be coming soon. Also have a baby sweater to finish for a friend. Take Care!

Ravelry 2008 Sock KAL

Merry Christmas. It is almost here!!! I have joined the 2008 Sock KAL in Ravelry. Going to be fun! Looking forward to talking socks with other sock knitters! The button is a little big but I'm working on it. Wish I knew what the heck I am doing - I guess it makes life an adventure!
