love 'em! Just finished a pair myself - 'cept mine were not toe-up and had a lovely waffle pattern - soothing, yet not boring. Good for you, Eliz!
I totally know what you mean! I always try to have a pair of plain jane socks to use as a palette cleanser from difficult colorwork, lace, etc! I love knitting a sock in a plain rib or the Hedgerow pattern.
Ohh guess what? I started knitting! I hadn't touched a pair of needles since my mom use to start my line when I was 9 y/o.
This time, I managed to start my own project and am working on getting tight rows.
Next, I'll learn to purl and do other fun things.
Happy New Year! I found your blog only a couple of months back and love it so much, I've been stopping by as often as I can to enjoy your posts and the inspiration you offer! Hope you have a fantastic 2011!
