New, real name. No lie:
Precious Cannister.
Yeah, that’s what I said.
I have a date tonight with Doc. (That’s what my friends at work have decided is her Sex and the City name–you know, along the lines of Mr. Big and The Russian.) Just a movie and maybe a bite. I’ll fill you in tomorrow…. Now, back to Cromarty.
Oh! And here’s my gal Kira’s leg with legwarmer sock (from Debbie Stoller’s Stitch ‘n Bitch) with Cascade Fixation from the Wonder Boys.
Ain’t it cute? The colors are awesome in person.
Mwah.
You thought I would resist! and what pray is going to be bit :0)Enjoy enjoy is all I dare say on the matter – well here anyway ha-ha
Rachel-
Have fun with DOC. I hope it is a good one.

Hey! The socks rock! and can’t wait to hear about the bite to eat and movie with the “Doc”.
BTW…I’m just catching up with your last few posts.
Re: “don’t completely rule it out for my twilight years. Might be nice to have someone to open the pickle jars”
There’s nothing more comforting than the softness of a woman to nuture the aches and pains (physical/emotional and spiritual) of a (pre?)twilight heart and psyche. And I like being the one to catch the bugs/go to the fuse box and open the pickle jars 😉
Hugs!
Love the sock. And have fun with Doc tonight…can’t wait to dish about it, Sex and the City style. Which one are you? Carrie? Miranda? Samantha? Tee hee.
Actually, my favorite “Which One Am I?” game for TV is the Golden Girls…I hate it, but I think I’m Rose.
So the Doc is back in the limelight? Oooh… can’t wait for the details!
And I have to ask: Precious Canister?
Precious Cannister! Oh, please tell us more! What is the world coming to if we can just go around putting adjectives and nouns together and calling them names? “And this is my sister, Potable Water…”
Have a great date! And tell Kira that her sock ROCKS!
Ahh dating 🙂 I sort of miss those days.. Learning about another person.. Opening up and revealing who you are to another person who is SOOO interested in YOU. Hope you and Doc have a great evening 🙂 And of course we want to hear allllllllll about it!
I love the sock. I haven’t knit with Fixation but it’s a great choice for such tall socks. Have fun on your date.
A girl named Doc. That’s pretty damn sexy. What movie did you see? Did you get popcorn to share, and did you both reach for it at the same time with buttery fingers? Do I miss dating too? Yeah, l’il bit.
ah, damn it! another thing i just have to knit! haha! those are fantastic! great colors too!
For a minute there I was confused: why is your date’s Sex & the City name Precious Cannister? Then I turned on my brain.
Kira’s socks look great, and if there was any chance of my ever wearing brightly striped knee socks I’d hop right on that bandwagon.
I’m fuzzy, too, not that it’s anything new. :)Guess I’ve been a hick too long. Precious Cannister?
Hmmm. I know I read this post yesterday but I didn’t see the picture of your sock. I love those colours!! It looks fabulous. I haven’t knit socks in awhile – I should get back into it again; I was in a sock-knitting frenzy when I first started knitting them but I guess the novelty wore off after the first 11 pairs. You’re inspiring me.
