Christmas Yarn Socks

By -

Lorna's laces sock is coming along. I'm doing a little pattern from the Two By Two Scarf I knitted.

K2tog but do not slip them off, insert the needle between the two sts and knit the first st again, P2
Repeat the first row
Next 2 rows: K2P2

Repeat these four rows.


Everyone in the swap has been matched and should have their partner's information.

I finished Making Rounds With Oscar, about the nursing home cat who only cuddled with patients when they were dying. It was as much about dementia as it was about Oscar. Honestly, I think I need some comic relief now......
any movie suggestions to rent????

Comic relief? Rent bridesmaids. I watched it over the holidays and couldn't stop laughging. I will be adding it to my video library, it is one I will watch over and over:)

I haven't seen Bridesmaids 2 yet but if it is as good as the first it will be fun to watch!

Love the socks. I made that scarf but never thought about using the pattern for socks. Thanks!

Love that colorway, Kathy. I'm not sure I'd want that cat you've been reading about anywhere near me! BTW, that's a cute new photo of your kitties. Looks like Beatle is getting bigger? Thanks for your matching work!

Ahhh....socks!


I've been wanting to make a pair for myself for the longest time. Never had the time. Other projects always seem to get in the way.


Yours look really nice. And warm.

 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...
