Finally!!!

4th of July - http://www.fourthofjulytext.com

I have a name and an address of someone who will finish the socks-in-progress that have been in my possession for some time now.  They will be mailed to Lambikins (who lives in Connecticut) later this morning.  Best of luck brave warrior!

We plan on spending a semi quiet 4th.  Once again we are minding a neighbor's dog and plants in exchange for hot tub/cooling pool privileges.  It is a great trade.  We are celebrating our 35th Anniversary on Sunday.  If you are looking for a gift...click here.

The Annetrelac Socks are coming along after a few false turns yesterday.  Hopefully, I will be through the entrelac section on the first sock later this afternoon.

A Lull In the Battle


I had vowed not to post until I was killed in battle, however, with over 600 fallen warriors...oddly....I am still alive.  This fact has absolutely nothing to do with skill or cunning. It is simply the luck of the game once the socks are out of your hands.  It is imperative to knit and mail once you find a wip in your mailbox to move the game along.  The only way to deflect the socks coming to kill you is to encourage your killer's killer to, "knit like the wind."  Spring Fuller, this means you.  Knit your socks for Freda Veale and post them to Canada NOW!   The picture above is the package containing the weapon that killed Gail Woods. The Detonator Socks in progress were sent to me to finish by Lori in Nine Mile Falls, WA. They were made from a lovely shade of pale yellow ToFutsies .  What a wonderful death for poor Gail.  May she rest in peace.

Our front yard is full of roses and vegetables.  Having a front yard full of vegetables might seem strange to you...but it works for us.  We frequently enjoy a morning stroll through the yard with a cup of coffee and Spookie. There are so many interesting things to see.
