Socks, washcloths, and socks

I finished the Strawberry Creme socks two weeks ago - along with a matching toddler pair. But in my rush to get them posted to the UK, I forgot to take a photo! The parcel arrived a few days late, but more importantly the pair for my dear friend fit! And the toddler pair aren't too small for her little grand daughter. Whew!!

A while back the grandsons helped make soap. [NOT the lye-type] They made a large bar for their mama and each made two small bars for themselves. I had Buster out shopping one day and when we passed the Peaches & Cream cotton, he wanted the green ball. Hmmm... I decided to crochet them each a wash cloth. Buster's in the green and the blue for Sport.

After I'd finished the wash cloths and showed them to the boys, Sport said he wanted two of them. His 2nd will be a variegated blue because [guess what?] his favorite color is blue. Buster's 2nd cloth will be in red. He has several "fave colors" as he calls them...green and red among them.

And, I've started a pair of socks for me! The yarn is OnLine Supersocke 100 Farbe [color] 0896. [The color looked brighter on my camera...??]

Yeah, I know. I'm too old to knit with black yarn. I need really good light to do this. Details later. But, now I'm off to the surgeon for my One Year check up. Yes, I'm a couple months beyond one year. I'd been waiting to make an appt. that would not conflict with mom's upcoming surgery [June 2nd]. Won't be taking the socks with me this morning. I think I'll work on the variegated blue wash cloth.
