Finished knitting the socks! In honour of Pam..



As you can see I'm posing, modeling my creations in the morning light. I sit in this spot every morning drinking my coffee and reading, it's so nice. The reason I'm 'modeling'? Well other than the fact that I'm a big ham I'm trying to hide the mistake I made in the hidden sock. Oh OK go on then I'll show you the mistake.


The ball of wool in the background is because my dad loved the socks so much that he wants some.How sweet,to knit a pair of socks for me old dad,Pam would be so pleased.

  2. I think there is nothing warmer than a hand-knit pair of socks. These are lovely for so many reasons, and now some for your dad!

    Yesterday my son invited me into the house where he and his fiancée moved to last week, and there on the sofa was a pair of green socks like these that Andrea is knitting. They said "homey" to me.
