Happy Mother's Day!
How fun for you Saturday! Every bit of it (but NOT the tooth trouble today) You KNOW I can sympathize with you about broken pesky molars. ((hugs)) I'm so sorry to hear about that, and on Mother's day too, bah!

Your socks are once again Teeee-rific! Branching Out is so pretty. It reminds me of the thread crochet fillet patterns I've done in the past for shawls/scarves, etc. But I've never knitted such things. I'm always impressed by your talents. Your sock yarn is so cool.

Btw, I conquered the heel turning last evening. Yay! But only after searching websites with explicit pictures and directions (not the little sock book). Pictures of my poor sock maybe be forthcoming someday when I finish it, and if I want to humble myself in your sight..ha! Today, I'm making a journey to a "wool / knitting" and other things expo. Shearing sheep and llamas, alpaca's and other stuff. We'll see if I can get pictures. That is if I actually make it there at all--that's the plan! Check my post later or tomorrow ;-) Take care!

FUN day out

It sounded like a fun day out.

In a year I'll have finished seminary - and I think I'd like to get back into knitting. wondering if there's such a fun group here in Finland. carlstad is too far away!
