First I want to show you a picture of the snow...I just loved the way the sun was coming through the trees. My poor birds don't know what to do as this is the tree where their feeders are hanging. Not to worry, they found the feeders and are fed daily.
This is yarn that I bought a few weeks ago while I was at A C Moore.....It is Debra Norville yarn.....very soft and I just love the color. The socks are going to be ankle socks with a zig zag cuff. I don't know if you can see the cuff that well but I do like the pattern.
This is a little bit more of a close up...I just love my Harmony needles too. I took this yarn and my needles to my daughters last weekend as I wanted to learn how to do "toe up" socks but my daughter Pamela who was visiting does hers on circulars and I didn't have mine with me so I never did learn. I guess I will have to get some circs and try finding a tutorial on the net....of course I am going to her house in March which will call for a trip to her yarn store and I will more then likely buy yarn and maybe the needles and she can then show me how to do them.
This is a counting bracelet that my daughter Pamela gave me over last weekend. I just love it. She had someone send her one and then she made one for herself and seeing as I loved it she made one for me and one for my sister who is just learning how to knit. I will say my sister is doing very well with her knitting. She has made two pair of socks and is now on her second pair of fingerless gloves. She made a pair for her daughter in law to be and when her sister saw them she requested a pair. I told Nancy, my sister, that was a nice compliment....always nice to have someone like your knitting so much they request something.
