all about the socks

we had a fabulous long weekend, detailed accounts in three parts can be had at the coffee blog, including a lengthy analysis of my yard dog trial. it didnt go too bad, all things considered!

knitting of socks did take place, in the car:

then some embossed leaves or other part-lace with this:



then a whole heap of fibonacci socks (need at least three pairs for the dog sports team) with these:


phew. im exhausted already!
