It's an amazing day! The damn green socks which took me over three and a half years to knit are finally finished. OK Let's be honest, the first sock took me a few weeks to knit but the second sock took me three and a half years to complete.
Even Molly thinks three and a half years is much to long to have knit on a sock but she's fascinated by the bright green color.
As soon as the socks are dry, I plan to wear them until they have holes in the heels. Then they can go to my darning basket where socks go to retire as I never do get around to darning their heels.
Congrats! You going to start up another pair? I had a pair I was working on for a couple of years. It was a complicated patter and just had no motivation to work on it.
ReplyDeletePaula - Oops! Just saw this comment. I'm taking a break from socks right now. I love making them but this last pair just broke me so I think I need some time apart. That and I have so many other UFOs to clear off my plate.
ReplyDeleteI am impressed!
