I'm finally retired and feel I can do what I love. I'm so happy to be out of the rat race! I try to quilt, read and knit as much as possible. I love to get comments and will respond to each and every one! I hope you enjoy my little blog as much as I do! Thank you for visiting me!

Slow Socks
I finished my socks! The first one seemed to take forever but the second sock was quicker. They're size large since they're for my husband. I used sock yarn. The pattern is an easy knit 3 purl 1. He's already started wearing them. Before I gave them to him, I washed them and used a sock form for drying purposes. I'm now sewing down the binding on my applique quilt. More to come about that later!!

Thank you! I'm finally sewing down that binding. I've had it sewn on for awhile but never seemed to get to it.
DeleteBeautiful color and nicely knitted socks. I think I have forgotten how to knit socks, especially the heels. lol
ReplyDeleteThanks, Astrid. The heels are the only tricky part. My husband has enjoyed wearing them!
