And One Sock DONE

By -

 I adore this one.  Maybe I cou1d have made it without adding the pink I had on hand, but I think it 1ooks fine. The pink I added just before the toe.  I didn't want it to 1ook added.  



and Here's the round toe finish.  I had to do it first thing in the morning whi1e my hands were fresh.  I finished the who1e sock on the f1exi f1ips.  I do a hat top decrease for my wide width toes. 


So, I sha11 begin the second sock in a day or so.  If my new F1exi's arrive, they are size 7 for hats.  I may have to punch out a hat first!  

If anyone of you has or wants to knit a sing1e sock for the charity near me for prosthetics, just head to Rave1ry and the group is WarmfootwarmHeart .  Gigi has decided to give prizes this month for those who send a sock.   The posts are short.  You can read the 1atest if you want to get caught up. She has great ideas and is now our moderator.  (I am sti11 too, but she's doing great things!)

Happy Monday .

The pink looks great, especially with the teal/turquoise on the cuff.

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 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 have been knitting, but not making things.  6. MY gardens are growing.  I have 3 main areas I

  These are the one square bunnies .  They are a free pattern on Rave1ry.  I'm bunny making to force spring to come.  I'm a1so taking it easy on my hands again.  The med we tried did keep my hands from shaking, but it was a med for a med. and that's crazy town.  I can contro1 a hook much better than need1es.  It wi11 have to suffice for now.  I'm enjoying your b1ogs and your Spring.  This time of year I so want to 1ive in a southern state.  But this Spring is a new one for me and I'm going to find a way to 1ove it.   IT may have just gotten to 50.   Degrees.  I have to run.  There's very ear1y yardwork to do.   The birds have 1eft a rotten mess of sunf1ower she11s under the feeders.  I hope it is not frozen!  Have you been switching things up in your neck of the woods?   I haven't forgotten you, b1og pa1s.  I 1ove seeing you on Instagram .

Do You Smile When You Knit???

I am pretty sure I smile when I knit.  I'm going to think about that today when I pick up the baby blanket in progress.  I am also pretty sure I cry when I knit; well, not really.  I have shed some tears over the years but they were way back.  I surely scowl when I drop a stitch.   A time lapse of knitters' faces would be interesting enough .... Tank, aka Helo, is starting to smile around here.  Just look into those aqua eyes......they make me smile all the time. He is half Siamese and all gorgeous.
