The promised pictures




Here are the promised pictures. A pair of socks , finished in a race with the Formula One drivers in Imola. I watched too much and knit too little and lost. LOL . The yarnis for four pairs of socks- a black pair for Michael,which I started last night, the blue strip is for Moni. The other dark yarn is actually a dark blus silk mix with sparkle. I hope to find some dark blue beads to add to the cuff of this pair. I don't yet have a plan for the off white and blue yarn. I just liked it. I also bought three pairs of circs. One pair is Inox and the other two are Addi premiuns. I have read so much about these needles that I have to try them. I have been ironing this morning , but Larry King live is on so it is my knitting/stitching time.

You make such awesome socks! I can just see all the entire family in these roaming around the house. ; )
Glad you had a nice mini-vacation too!

Wow - great stuff, Rachael!

You have to tell me how you manage to speak accent-free German. I'm so tired of speaking Dutch only to have people immediately say, "Oh are you English?"

Good luck with those circular needles, Rachael! My circs are causing me cramps (in my hands, that is), so I won't be trying any of them for socks...
