Keeping The Feet Warm

Not a whole lot of creativity going on here at the moment. Perhaps in a couple of weeks, I will be back to painting and refinishing furniture. In the meantime, I am lucky to get the laundry done!  I finished one of the socks I was knitting.


It's a bit too tight in areas and too long in others. It may end up getting frogged. For you knitters out there, you understand the term "Frogged."  I still really liked the pattern, "Flutter-by socks" by Shannon Robalino, which you can find on Ravelry,  I just realized after hours and hours of knitting, that I probably should have used size 2 needles and not size 1. I will eventually start all over with the same pattern, but use larger needles. Such is life. Socks are particularly hard as well. I know a few knitters that end up getting "Second Sock Syndrome." They finish one sock, and then have a hard time getting motivated about starting on the second one.  I'm there, and then some.

Just for fun, here are some pictures of some other socks that I knitted last winter.
