Socks Do Not Like Me This Week...

This is the second time I've frogged a sock...at least this time it wasn't all the way back to the toe. My pretty Black Iris handpainted yarn just didn't work properly in the feather and fan pattern. I'm not one who goes bonkers over pooling, but this?
This was just more than I could stand. I inserted the circulars back in about 2.5 inches below and just above where the pattern was about to start and pulled out the dpns, unraveling carefully as I went.
We're back on track now. I had a brief moment of choosing a ribbed pattern, perhaps the mock cable, and decided that I liked the looks of the stockinette foot so much, I'd just continue as it was...with a picot edging, of course.

My Meezer is pretty pleased that her expressions communicate so clearly just what she is thinking...and she compliments everyone on being astute Siamese posture readers!

(((hugs)))

Namaste

I honor the place in you,

which is of love, truth, light, and peace.

When you are centered in that place in you,

and I am centered in that place in me,

we are one.
