Who's idea was this?

Who's idea was this?
In an effort to follow another blogge's suggestion, I joined the upside down sock image post. This was not an easy task. I found it difficult to lie on my back with the Hungarian legs elevated enough to get the socks in frame. I am not Gumby. I am not Pokey.

Socks are fun trekking yarn. So much fun they do not match. Making them match would not have been fun. I had a KNOT in the yarn somewhere, but I admit that would not have caused this much descepancy. I forget how this happened.

Thats the joy of socks for Me.

KnitswithasilentK.blogspot.com has posted a tutorial on special effects blogging. I cannot wait to see if this worked. Seems too easy.

Love that Trekking! I've had socks do that because of a knot. Sometimes you just have to keep knitting.

Those look so perfect for spring. I love that the stipes don't match since that really is the beauty of trekking yarn. Nice job!

Yeah! You tried the Inverted Sock Pose. OK - maybe a good warm-up and some yoga first would make it a bit easier. I like to cross the ankles until I find a good pose. It sure does make the socks look great and the ankles skinnier! Love the color on those socks. Wear them well.

Love your italics! Want to try making that reference to my blog a link with an a tag? (I can't give you the code because Blogger will change it.) ;) Less than sign, a href="http://knitswithasilentk.blogspot.com" greater than sign, the link text, less than sign, /a, greater than sign. A challenge!

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
