Finished Last Friday: A Hat and a pair of Socks

I really have been knitting! I got a couple things done lately..

I finished a pair of socks and a hat for Laura at Handwerks! It WOULD figure that

a) The camera batteries died AGAIN!

b) I forgot to charge them

c) I forgot to take a picture of the socks and hat by alternate means prior to sticking them in the box and sending them to her!

This yarn is beautiful, so it was a very nice job indeed! The benefit of knitting samples for different yarn companies and dyers, is that you get to play with different yarns!! The problem is that you discover beautiful yarns like this and you spend all your earnings on it!! hehehe Or at least you sure are tempted to!

I’ll show you some more finished projects soon. I was able to finish a shawl that had been sitting around FOREVER waiting for another skein of yarn to finish it off!

For now another squishy package of yarn arrived on my doorstep yesterday from Laura.. the card in this one had the words.. cashmere.. and merino on it among others.. man I have a tough life!

P.S. those who keep saying I would like knitting socks.. might just get me to eat my words when I kept saying no I won’t! Eek!

    I’m with you on the subject of socks. I *want* to like knitting them. I *want* to like some of the colorways that indie dyers are producing. And I *want* to think I’m smart enough to figure out a heel type that I could love….but it just hasn’t happened. I feel like such a parriah.

  2. Denise, i would like to purchase one of your patterns. I don’t have a pay pal account and would like to work out another way like snail mail. I tried to send you an e-mail, but the link on your page does not work. This comment was the only way i could contact you. Please reply to lone_wolf646@yahoo.com

    On the camera batteries…….I went and bought a 15 minute charger at WalMrt. It goes everywhere I travel and has been such a lifesaver for those darned batteries that lose life so fast! Sometimes the batteries are charged sooner!!

    thanks for all you do!
