Hurricane Sock Box!

My Hurricane Box is here!

Bright Socks! Woot!

It actually arrived from Becca the day-before-yesterday but there was no daylight by the time I opened it and then yesterday it rained all day and there was no daylight. Today it only looks like it wants to rain so I took my haul out onto the back porch to pose. I am really tickled with my sock! Becca wrote the pattern (charted and everything) and it looks like it’s gonna be a fun one to make – I love the stripes on the heel and toe! It’s toe-up so I am going to have to give that another go – what a great way to learn new techniques! You might notice the empty chocolate wrappers. They were quite good and the book is new to me. Everything smelled delicious because of the lavendar soap.

I can’t wait to get started on the second sock – just as soon as I work out the stitch pattern on the Toasty Toes socks. I am on attempt #7 (I lied about just living with attempt #6), and I have high hopes for this one! Of course, I had high hopes for attempt #6 too…

PS When I assigned Epic CounterPain knitting to Monk and Psych, I didn’t consider what would happen when the seasons were over. CounterPain squares are now also made during Eureka, Veronica Mars and Scrubs.
