YARN ALONG

We are not perfect, we are learning.
That's the beauty in our specific
journey.

~ Alex Elle









 
 
 
I finished my jellybeans socks
and turned right around and
cast on a another pair of socks,
this time using leftover yarn
from my Sleeping Socks. I did
weigh the yarn and think I
should have more than enough
for a pair of  basic grey socks
that I am knitting without a pattern,
it's fun living on the edge ;).
 
I am still reading Orhan's Inheritance,
and have fallen deep into it's pages
and the mystery of the story, even
staying up past my bedtime to read
just 'a few more pages'.  Great book.

  1. I love a book that makes me stay up late, although I am decidedly not a night owl...love your socks! I have some grey sock yarn that I am planning to use for socks for my son if I ever finish Emma's socks. No, not if, when :-)

  13. Beautiful yarn, I love how it seems to match your berries! I wish we had some berries ripe but it won't be long now as there are bees humming around our raspberries all day! Enjoy your book, I have the same situation going on here right now!
