Both BBS are 5 inches past the heel turn, YIPEEE!! That means only 4.5 inches to go and I can do the toe decreases and kitchener them shut!!! I cant wait to send them off to Kim, I know I’ve said this before but hopefully this time *crosses fingers* I will be able to get them finished this week 🙂
Lookie!! The second sock of this pair is past the heel turn too! These are for my nephew Jacob, these are also late Christmas Presents. I’m sorry Jacob, they are coming, hopefully in the next week or so for these too, after the Soldier Socks are done anyways 🙂 I am loving the J.Knits yarn, its a tad irritating to knit with but when washed it softens up so nice that the irritation is well worth it! The Sannybug Jaywalkers will prob be frogged, unless I can find the pattern. Since Magknits was shut down and I’m not sure if Grumperina has republished it or not so if its lost I’ll have to find another pattern to use for them its to bad too the pattern is really easy and fun, but…..
Theres a frost advisory again tonight and since its supposed to get into the mid 30s I went out and covered all of my Iris buds, theres a bunch of them! I didnt cover the flowers unless they had a bud on the stem with them as I didnt have enough plastic of either the WM bag kind or the Visquene(sp?)Plastic kind, sorry if its spelled wrong. I hope to have some new flower pics in the next few days, am expecting SEVERAL Blue colored ones, a Burgundy, hopefully a Pink or two and am not sure what the other color is unless the one Burgundy bud is the 3rd color planted last yr. LOL! There should also be a Yellow/White bloom too from a transplant last yr.
Well its late, and Brian just got home for supper, hes stuck at the Funeral Home again (another Story) so am gonna cut this post off here and eat my supper while visiting with Brian. Have a Nice Evening and I will see ya tomorrow!
Those are happy socks!
Hello! Good news! I went to Grumperina’s site and it says that the Jaywalker pattern is at Ravelry for a free download. If you aren’t a Raverly member, give me a shout and I’ll see what I can do. :O) samm
