Chapter 32, socks

I am ready to try knitting socks. I finished the gray hole (aka the sweater for me) or at least almost finished. I needs to be sewn up on the sides. So last night Anthony took me to one of my favorite yarn and needlework stores, Sea Needles, and I bought a simple sock pattern, a set of double pointed needles, and two skeins of sport weight sock yarn. (okay and I bought 18 skeins of thread for my embroidery/crazy quilting, and a sampler cross stitch pattern) I am planning to try casting my socks on tonight. I am also hoping to get some of Aunt Marie's "year of the wiener" transferred to squares this weekend. Anthony works nights, so it will help keep me busy. I really miss him when he works nights, but he prefers to work nights. sighs.
