A new month



Well it's a new month and there are some knits off the needles and something new on them too . I'll call these the strawberry waffle socks (the pattern is a waffle rib) . These are intended for Shirley's daughter and the smaller ones will be for her granddaughter , Emma . The yarn is Lorna's Laces "Tickled Pink " .


There was quite a bit of yarn left from Dana's socks , so I decided to knit a toddler sized pair for Emma . Just in case I ran out of the Lorna's Laces , I searched the stash and found a single ball of hot pink sock yarn . Perfect solution , cuff , heels and toes in the Lorna's Laces and the rest of the sock in hot pink . Pink is not my colour, so it's a mystery to me how I had some in the stash and only one ball to boot. Another pair down and knitting continues ....

Nice socks! Pink isn't my color, either, even though I did get some pink sock yarn on the weekend with myself in mind. I've been seeing a lot of pink socks lately, and I just have to have a pair, too. :)

Pink is not my color either, but I like your socks! And it's funny, because I have pink sock yarn in my stash too, so I guess at some point, I must have liked it for some reason.

Every girl needs some pink in her collection. Wonderful socks! Isn't that waffle rib a wonderful pattern? So much fun & so easy to memorize.
