Neighborhood Flower Joy
Flowers are everywhere this time of year.
I've had socks at my fingertips. When I am further along, I will show you some work. I frogged the lace socks and am enjoying vanilla socks with Channon's gift yarn.
I know I know, I'm so boring. Did I ever tell you that our dog breeder/trainer called us the BORING BOYERS because we wanted a CALM puppy?
(Huck was the calmest in his litter)
I have no regrets.
I have decided to knit a pair of socks from the toe up in order to change up my repertoire. Anyone have a pattern, designer or tips for me on this one?
My weekend wrap up for those interested in the Boring B's:
-More time with my sister before she went back to Minnesota. It involved chatting around the kitchen table...
-My dogs have been barking. I am into epsom salt soaks. I need new workout/walking shoes.
-A hawk in our tree. It better not be looking at my new kitten ...but the screened porch protects her.
-Dry rub ribs from Peapod that were excellent. No need for sauce. They were amazing at 6.99 for a slab that fed Zach and me.
-Deadheading flowers in the yard...I told you it is not exciting...:) but it sure is peaceful

I tried toe-up socks once...and I have one sock...never got to the second one. the shape of the toe just didn't work for me, and I got frustrated.
Have you ever worn Keens? They are really great!!!! Wonderful to walk in...long distances are not a problem.
And I finally got the relaxing walk I wanted yesterday. It was uneventful, and even when Sis saw deer, she wasn't as wild as she sometimes is.
Hugs from your really boring friend, Meredith
I have no advice on the socks... so sorry. They are starting a toe-up class at our LYS this week... but, that doesn't help. I know you will come up with a great plan. blessings ~ tanna
I was sitting by some young-20s the other day and I couldn't believe their conversation (which I couldn't MISS because of the volume) --- oh man....I would be 24 again for anything. Too much drama.
Here I have to watch for eagles that sit in the trees and wait for me to turn my back on my little doggies.
Boring is my cup of tea and I need more of it.

Love the flowers! And there's nothing wrong with good ol' vanilla.
