SNOWY SUNDAY; COLD FEET EDITION


Are your feet always C O L D?  Mine sure are.  So this afternoon, in honor of Slow Stitching Sunday, I have cast on for a pair of socks for myself. 

 It took me a while to recall just how to work on DPN's (double pointed needles) so that my stitches weren't all twisted but resulted in knitting in the round -- been many years...but it came back to me!!  YAY!! 

I love this variegated yarn..browns, blues, turquoises,,,and I am making them roomy so that 
my tootsies can breathe in bed.  These will be bed socks....

and isn't this an adorable Ditty Bag?? I purchased it from Lowland Originals...online. 

I want to make some bigger ones for my knitting projects.  I like the drawstring because there are no zips, snaps or straps to get in the way of pulling your yarn to knit....

I am now watching the first televised RED SOX  (hah, socks  knitting while watching the SOX!!) Spring-Training  game on tv. ;--)))

that MUST mean that Spring is coming right??? Couple with "Springing" Ahead for Daylight
Savings time last night--we can at least hold out hope for warmer weather....
