a sock is born ….
Posted by sherriknits
Tonight was knit night and my dear little friend came in with her sock almost ready to kitchener the toe closed. I am so proud of her! We may have started that sock last fall and sometime between then and now she was on the mission field for an extended stay. She then spent some time in Canada with the missionaries she worked with while they gave birth to their 3rd child. When she picked her knitting back up, she was knitting pretty loose compared to what she was doing before so we had to work on that a little bit, but then she took off flying. Just a few days ago, I helped her turn her heel and pick up the gusset. Tonight we had to frog most of the toe because there was one loose little stitch hanging out loose in the beginning of the decreases. She has a great attitude and wants it right. Ahhhh, a knitter, she is!
In no time at all, it was time to close that toe.
the concentration..
and it’s done!
I’m almost done with my market bag, half a row to go and then binding off and figuring out what to do for handles.
The weather is beautiful, the little imp has already broken his “claw” but he doesn’t seem to care. It would cost me more to drive back to return it than just cutting our losses. Made him happy.
