Closing toes

I'm busy closing toes on the socks. I have finally learned to close the toes from the inside of the sock. No more putting them on needles well that if i could remember to remove the heel lift on that last row. Form some reason I just started not removing it. Must be that I'm happy to celebrate another sock being done. ha, ha. We are getting a lot of rain on top of all the snow we had. We will have ice.... Thats not fun. I haven't had my car out of the driveway for a week. First the door was frozen shut from the snow then I ran the car for way over an hour trying to get all the ice to melt and the snow off the windows. No such luck I just turned off the car and went with my husband. I don't mind going shopping with him but he is always in a hurry to leave the stores.

With all the sock making for gifts I manage to knit a pair for myself that are really warm. We need warm socks.....



Look at my NZAK heel lift Marika Cowan put beads on them. It just perfect. Thanks You Marika

Christmas Gifts

I have been working on socks and scarves for Christmas. I don't know why I don't start early. I seem to work better under pressure. This is just cutting it tooo close.

I'm waiting for a new CSM this is new to me but it has been around for years. I got it on ebay. Verdun 47 I will have plenty of time to work with this machine after Christmas and will be able to relax.
