9th pair seem to take forever!

I'm currently knitting my 9th pair of socks! They're a pair for my hubby so at least he can have 'one to wash one to wear' Don't worry he DOES have other pairs of socks.. just only one hand knit pair, so he should be happy soon! They don't seem to be coming along as fast as other pairs have, but thats probably because they're bigger, he wanted them longer this time.

I'll post a pic of them soon, i'm hoping to finish them today.

I'm expecting some parcels over the next few days, a 'craft wizard' which is my valentines present from hubby - basically a memory stick in the shape of a heart with lots of crafty bits on it. A set of Joanna Sheen cds, which i really bought for my 5 year old as it has paper dress up dolls on it, honest.. i didnt buy it for me.. no no no ;) I've also ordered some self patterning wool which i can't wait to try for socks! So all in all its going to be a busy week!

Some of My Socks So Far..

There are a few more pairs, but some i've given away, and getting hubbies off his feet even to wash them let alone take piccies is a mamouth feat (no pun intended!)


Finally Up And Running!

I've had this blogspot a VERY long time, can't remember exactly how long, but i'm pretty sure I had it before I met my husband, so that would put it at least 7 years ago! But I've never before actually got around to doing anything with it.. so i thought it was time!

*hugs*
