cast off, Eh!

Sorry about the title - I thought of it yesterday & decided it was too lame to keep it all to myself.

I know I'm due for a bigger update than what I'm about to give, but I wanted to post about the mail I got today! I'll update again, hopefully tomorrow with some knitting updates.

I finished my sock swap socks & sent them off today - and when I got home, the socks from my sock pal were there with the mail! Lovely!


They fit wonderfully, and are really a beautiful pair of socks. My swap pal Ann used some Cherry Tree Hill yarn in a bright orange called 'Tangerine' - this yarn feels really, really great. The beaded cuff makes them extra special - I love them!

Thanks, Ann!

I love how the beads nestle inside the cables. It's like wee small flowers!

whoa. Those are awesome!
I'm still working on knitting mine. It just seems endless....
I'm serious, I must have at least 15 hours into them!
I finally got an account so I can post comments on your blog.
