|
Well I failed misserably last month, after saying I would nip in with some trainer socks I didn't even make that using DK yarn So today I have finished the toe on one and made a good start on the other.
They are size 11 for my dad, the first of 3 pairs I want to make for him for christmas.
Secondly Daisydaps Hendre socks, finally finished the first one yesterday and finished the rib this morning. Not sure it I'll get these finished for this month but I'll give it a good go.

Thanks,
I hope I can finish them, I've cut my work load right down now as I was taking on silly orders, at one point I had 4 orders a week, and while it was good escapism from everything else it wasn't really a good idea and I just added greatly to my stress levels. So I should now have more than enough time to finish of all the things I've got outstanding

Very nice! I love the pattern and jewelled colours of the bottom one especially. _________________ My Blog: Put a Sock in it |

Finished my dads pair yesterday, but only just figured out how to load my camera onto my laptop.
I have also just started on the heel of the other pair so think I should get them finished for the end of the month as well.
