I hope that all the Americans had a Happy Thanksgiving, and everyone else around the world had a Happy Thursday!

I am grateful for a great many things this year. But thing that I am most grateful for after the last 6-7 months is the fact that my dh is still amongst the living!

Now to knitterly news.

Purpy’s first pair of socks are long done. First sock of second pair is about halfway done.

Christmas stocking is done, sorry no pic yet.

Part one of barter job one is done. I have an adult pair of socks and a toddler pair of socks to go on this one, but am waiting on recipient to make yarn choice.

Frankensweater has voiced herself again and expressed the strong desire to just be Frankenshrug. (Okay, so I am nearing the deadline and will do good to get it finished as a shrug and not a chance in hell on completing a sweater for myself, not even by the end of the year!)


Awhile back I was given some nice sock yarns. This Christmassy sock yarn, I believe but am not sure, is pure merino. I am using it to make dgd, my little angel and a friend’s little 4 yr old girl each a pair of holliday socks. I have just turned the heal of the first of six socks.

Happy Day to one and all!!!
