My Sweetheart has requested socks. Mind you, he hasn't received the first pair yet (they're done, just not in his hands - er - on his feet, yet). Apparently his work environment, newly changed, is a might frigid.
So I have decided I need to kick sock knitting into overdrive, and just about the time I did, a shipment of goodies arrived from Little Knits and this colorway of Regia was in it. I liked it so much, I've tracked down another skein and ordered it (from England again!) for MOI!
channeling my inner Miss Piggy, up there *wink*
All that sock making during Summer of Socks and then in preparation for Sock Summit in 2009? It has served me well. I can churn out a plain vanilla sock with reasonable speed while continuing to work a full-time and a part-time job, do shows, and nurture a new relationship all at the same time.
Who knew?

nice socks! you go!
Your sweetheart will appreciate the warmth of true hand knit wool socks. Glad you can get in the groove for it. My sweetheart wears socks without shoes outside and has size 12 extra wide feet. I knit him hats.
Who knew, indeed? But it's especially nice that, in this case at least, sock knitting and relationship nurturing are one and the same!
