Plans and an Improvement I

I did not make a lot of socks last year but a few of the pair's had gussets that were a bit tacky looking.  It was all in the way I was picking my stitches up.  I finally took the time and effort to not be in such a hurry.  It made a difference with this pair.  Success so far and it will only get better !

This sock by the way is for the receptionist in my physician's office.  She asked me if I would make her a pair and I could not turn her down.  She has always been sweet to me.  I have seemed her knit-worthy.

I made a shawlette last year and enjoyed it's versatility which made me go into my closet to pull out other shawls and cowls.  They feel so nice and give a completion to whatever outfit I'm wearing if that makes sense.  Wearing shawls and cowls give me the feeling of being hugged all day.

I started with on a shawlette this morning and I can't wait to be hugged by it.

There is quite a bit of garter to this which is wonderful while watching the television.

Have a great week !
