Not sure of these socks


I started working on these socks back in Nov. but put them down to do christmas gifts and today when I picked them back up I am not sure if I still like them. I started them before in a deep pink colour and did not like the way that they were to tigth so this one is better but, I guess it's just taking too long to make up. Maybe I will try working on something else for the time until I feel up to these again or until I feel like frogging them to use the yarn for another project.

New years

Here I am trying to keep up with the time of blogging I don't know how people can do it every day. I would rather be sitting and knitting in my spare time. Christmas was good everyone like the gifts that I made. I am going to try and post daily and take a picture of whats on my needles for all to see. Yesterday I did up another pair of socks for my sons friends Birthday . One day to knit this up on size 3.25mm
