More On The Sock Saga And I Promise No Swear Words Today!

They are coming along.... here's a picture of the latest pair...
I'm really liking these socks.... great for a 12 year old gal.... I hope.

I've been having no problems with these socks.... and I'm really hoping it stays that way.  (I'm knocking furiously on wood now!) I am starting to dye for the next pair which will be similar to these but for a boy so the colours will definitely be different. I am doing them in grey (background) with blue, red and black. At least that is the plan. But then... with socks... plans are always subject to change with no notice!

I went to the NPSW Christmas party yesterday.... Oh joy of joys.... it was a great day.  If you want to see pics you should go here....

I got a lovely scarf as my gift....

...so soft with all those nice pastel colours.... I think it is predominately yellow... but I am told that I am wrong. However, I refuse to believe that it is predominately pink... that would be just wrong. Still it reminds me of Easter and spring... and there is nothing wrong with being reminded of spring.

Today is foggy... eew! And... I have an oven to clean since the last two times I heated anything in it, I had a fire... obviously something really spilled over in there and though I've scraped out some crud I'm just not willing for the Christmas turkey to turn into a fireball! Teapot is going to clean off the front deck so that our house doesn't continue to look like a Christmas disaster, and finally get that fence fixed so that the doggies have a proper run and are not running all over the place. That way they can now stop hunting, and eating mice from the hay bales and then promptly spewing them when they come in... yesssss!

But for now I'm heading to the couch to knit the ever lovin' socks.... (sigh)!
