Hi There! Remember me???
Cooties have officially invaded my house last week. But all is well now. Phew! I was SICK! But I am back and feeling great!
I don't know how I did it, but I finished my socks
Course I probably won't be able to wear them until next winter...it's going up to 55 degree's today!
I love these socks boy
Specs:
Yarn: Lion Brand - Wool Ease in light grey and little bits of purple heather
Pattern: Canyon Hiking socks from Greeting from the Knit Cafe book
Needles: US 3 Circular - 2 of them
I also managed to knit a couple of baby hats!
Close up:
Don't worry.... I totally de-cootified these. We wouldn't want the baby to get it...
Specs:
Yarn: Lion Brand Wool-Ease
Pattern: Umbilical Cord Hat from Debbie Stoller's first book, and the skull pattern from her latest book
Needles: US 5 Circular

The sickness is going around. Between my husband, me and the children we have been on a constant circle of sickness for about a month. Yuck! The hats are cute and I definitely love the socks. they are also on my "to do" list, but that is also a very long list.

The baby skully hat is too darn cute! and my love for the socks has not diminished at all.
Last week I was the only one cootie free in the house full of cooties, this week I stand alone. I've now been cootified :(
It was crazy warm today, but they are saying tomorrow it will drop again and be all icy by Wednesday. I hate the warm/cold swings. That type of weather always messes with me, and I'm messed up enough darn it!

Those socks turned out great! They look very warm and comfy. Too bad you can't get a size perspective on the baby hats... they are oh, so much cuter when you see how small they are!

Oh, those cooties! They surely have been making the rounds. And I think you may get some wear out of those socks yet. Winter seems to be hanging in pretty tightly in these parts at any rate.
