Well it is the finish of the year and the start of a new one. I have started off this year geat, in addition to being thankful for what we as a family have been blessed with this past year I have gotten a fresh bunch of sock yarn from my new favoirt shopping hole. jimmy Beans Wool. I purchased some of the Lorna's laces sock wool. The colors are fantastic. They realy are a delight to feel and look at while you are working. I have also just about finished a pair of socks for a friend of mine. They are looking great. The sock pattern is working out and I believe that I will be able to put some of my own designs on them the next time I knit up a pair. I have two stand by patterns just to give the back bone to the sock and then I add and remove, to make it my own pattern. One of the patterns deals with the fingering weight and the other deals with the sports weight. I will pass those pattern locations on. I have already started my wish list for books that I am needing to increase my knowlage about pattern design. I feel so limited when I knit. I want to be able to call the shots and to be able to fix those shots when they dont come out the way that they did in my head.
Well I am off I have to watch for the post man and finish the other sock. If I set my self by the window then I will be able to do both.
