[Still fuming - see earlier post]
I got online to share my good news! I finished Trekking XXL - #90 Kiefer Sock One last night. More correctly, this morning. We watched movies until 1:30 a.m. I finished the first of the pair, tried it on. Perfect fit! I am so pleased with the way it looks & feels on my foot. YIPPEE! This is the first pair for myself using the finer sock yarn.
[The earlier pair was in OPAL Petticoat for Mother. I usually visit her once or twice a week. I think she's had the OPAL socks on every time I've seen her since Christmas. She assures me that she washes them [by hand] - so she must take them off occasionally! Looks like I'll need to do another pair for her soon, but not before the Mountain Colors Bearfoot Flathead Cherry for myself!]
When I finished Kiefer #1, I switched to Kiefer #2 immediately and picked up the gusset stitches. Now I'm ready to work on said gusset and foot, and then I'll be done! The goal is to have Sock Two finished by Wednesday night. Yikes! As slow as I've been on this pair, don't know if that's do-able. We'll see. Staying in this a.m. - too much snow to shovel to try to make it to church. Got a big container of yesterday's White Chili in the fridge & lots of multigrain tortillas on hand. I'm all set to sit and knit all day!
Go Bears! Go Pats! Oh, oh. What if they both win? Hmmm...Go Bears!
