mail call


When I revealed my pitifully slow sock knitting record, Cookie felt my pain.

Click here to see. Humor me, it's been a long snowy icy week. Just click there.

Lucky for me! Even luckier, she thought it would bother me that the pink socks didn't match exactly in their pinkiness, so I deserved a bonus pair.

Happy feet. (Did you click? try it.)

  2. Nice socks! That's a pretty nice thing to do, especially for someone who claims to be a crank. The video deserves an Oscar.

  6. Hahahahaha! I took a toe-up sock class from Cookie last year in Burbank, CA. She's great!

    What a lovely gesture...to send you socks AND the video! That Cookie just cracks me up.

    My advice...send your sock yarn to Lynette at Fernwood Woolworks.

  8. Ellen! I'm not that Cookie! I'm just some random dork who knits socks.

    The mismatched socked bothered me. :p

    I love the little video. You are so creative and talented... and brave! I would not be outside in sock feet if there was snow.

    xo

  10. I didn't know you did video, too! What a hoot. I wonder if I whine about my sock knitting someone will take pity on me? Thanks for a good laugh.

  15. Thanks for the video - the socks look great by the way. And thanks for entering my contest - the ice-cream for breakfast idea is the best yet. But tell me - do you make 'snow cones' LOL.

    One look at those socks and Spring Beauties and Siberian Squill jumped into my mind. What a nice reminder that spring will come!
