Musings on a Sunday

 Hi Dear Blog Readers...

A few musings on a Sunday.  January feels like the longest month to me, how about you?

This week was a tough one at work..again!

I managed to finish up the snowflake sweater and may take a picture next week. It's finished all but the collar on each one. 

I dug out the Hermione's everyday socks I started a long time ago. I was ready to decrease for the toe.

I really don't care for these colors, and wonder why I bought the yarn? I think because I love Fiber Optics yarn, it the colors were different. They will be nice in the fall.  Anyway...I wanted something different for the toe. I have the exact same yarn in gray so I decided to add it in.  Then I thought...hmmmm.how would a slip stitch pattern look?  So I did it.

I knit the first two and last  two stitches of each row.  Im happy with how it turned out.  This is an after-thought heel.  I will do both heels at the same time when the 2nd sock is done.  Maybe a stripe heel?  Hmmmm I'll have to muse over that a bit.

It looks like I missed some stitches here, but its actually where the gray came in on the multicolored yarn.

Ruth is zooming...and I mean zooming along on her Spinnery Jacket.  

She said it goes really quick.  It's going to be so very nice.

Martha has decided to rip the buttonband on her sweater and start over.  She is never afraid to rip...so no new pictures from her this week.

In other news:

We saw the kids a lot yesterday which was wonderful, but no pictures. They are all so fun.

We are excited about the Buffalo Bills game today and really hope they win!  

I'm going to start sock #2 while I watch.

Have a good week dear blog readers...
