Doby Socks + 1

The mismatch Doby socks are done! I finished them up last night while watching my regular Friday night shows: Ghost Whisperer, Close to Home, and Numbers. I think they are pretty cute, and look good on the model, too!

Here's the first sock of the Sock in a Day Challenge. I like the way they turned out, but are a bit snug for me, so may go in the "Gift Drawer".

My plan is to start the second sock today, but.... My oldest and youngest sons are coming over today. My oldest son is in a wheel chair as a result of a car accident in 1997.

We'll hang out, watch TV/movies and probably end up playing Cribbage or some board game. So instead of a marathon knitting event, it may have to be the 18 hour version!

Did a bit of work on the hoodie I'm making for my grandson. Had to find something to do to keep from CO on the second sock! I still have five or six inches before the back is done.

Those interested in free books may want to check out Callapidder Days. Books up for grab! Libby has a baby blanket that is really a work of art! Dances with Wools has a lacy vintage pattern for muffatees. They'd really be pretty for "dress up" in the winter!
