Toasty.

Recently, I started a new knitting project. Jane is always knitting socks and after seeing her progress over the holiday, I thought I would give it another go. I attempted knitting socks one other time, but quit discouraged after the project took on gargantuan proportions. That is, the sock, rather than fitting my dainty feet, looked to fit the pig-toes of a much, much larger fella. Maybe even the giant at the top of Jack’s bean-stock.

This time, however, instead of making the sock too big, I made it just slightly too small, noticed mostly in the heel. The error occurred while watching the final few season three episodes of Deadwood. I completely missed the directions to decrease every other row. Lucky for me, I have one foot that is freakishly a whole shoe-size smaller than the other. Knitting disaster averted! I just love the pattern. So much green.

Before I end this much shorter post (courtesy of grumpy you-know-who, that insultingly stated he skimmed (!) my entries), I thought I would leave you with Sigma’s commonplace, but always perfect moment. Enjoy!
