Presenting

May 17, 2005

No time or energy to blog much today, so I’ll use Em’s 10 minute method.

New socks! Aren’t the best color? And know what the best part is? I didn’t make them! Lala did. And my feet love them. Happy, happy feet dance….

Treats! From Nurse Knitty Wendy, knitting pencils, GORGEOUS stitch markers, and best of all, CCEggs! I can’t thank you enough. I may make it to next Easter now.

Okay. My tired ass needs more coffee in prep for the week starting tonight. Where do weekends GO, anyway? Coffee, coffee, coffee…. (and chocolate!)

    Weekends get sucking into the same swirling vortex as mates to your favorite socks and essential US 1 dpns. *nod* We should stalk down this vortex and tell it where to go.

    Very cute and fun socks! And I totally agree about needing coffee and chocolate! Yes, those two items are in the “necessity” category!

    Gorgeous socks! What yarn did she use? I love the colours in them. And (*extreme newbie knitter question alert*) what’s a knitting pencil and where would you use it?
    I’m going to go drool over Cadbury’s Creme Eggs as I’m sure that the few I found in expensive grocery stores here in America tasted different from the ones I’m used to back home in England.

    Hey aren’t you a lucky girl to be on the receiving end of hand knit socks. They’re gorgeous! Btw, are they cotton? I made some out of a similar colorway, in cotton, a while back. Don’t remember the brand but I loved the color!

    Very cheery color! There’s nothing better than handknit socks… except when someone else knits them for you!
