Well, we never know how I do this, but finally the picture of the socks that I love so much. They feel so nice on my feet. I made Patty a pair that are black and they are cute. So, this is the first pair of socks that I am actually going to wear. It has taken me a very long time to achieve making socks and I finally think I have it. The heel on this one is really nice. On the heel flap you purl one side and then you k1,s1 and repeat that. At first I thought that something was wrong with the pattern but something was not wrong at all and it makes a great heel with a little more strength. I am very tired today. My husband is having some infection problems with his foot. They had to cut a bunch of meat away and now he is on IV antibiotics three times a day. I am a little nervous because today I have to change the bandage. I hope I dont' throw up when I see how much of his foot has been cut away. I have the Nurse Ratchet thing going with the IV and that is ok. His son took him to the hospital today and he will not have to go tomorrow and then I will take him on Monday. My eyes are so tired that it has cut into my knitting.

  • Goodness, that's no good at all! I hope he's okay. Maybe you should start knitting him some socks that are nice and soft for his recovery?

  • Oh, soo sorry to hear about hubby. Hope all is well and you changed the bandage without yakking. I need to make socks too. i'll track down supplies. perhaps i will see you tuesday.. thats 2/14 and in my opinion, the perfect VD gift would be to let me leave the office early and knit. but then maybe we are not getting together this duesday because of V-day... brooke
