sssstrrrrrreeeetttch

mega boots stretch that is.
check out my yarny mousey!



isn't he twee!

ok i've officially lost my mind.
but
that is ok.
right?
no reason to panic.
pair number 3 on the needles right now is obviously not getting the love numbers 1 and 2 are. sorry mousey.
but thats kinda how i feel about the socks.
the yarn halos.
it's soft and is squishy.
don't get me wrong they're knitting up into beautiful socks.
just not fabulous.
not wonderful.
just socks.



i'm using a variation on the lacy scallop sock stitch pattern that i used for my sockpaloooza socks.
i figured it would do the blues justice.
kinda look like waves?
yes no?
i need some opinions here.
i hated to go with straight stockinette because well it would bore me to tears but honestly.
what do you think?
do i frog?


oh and i've just realized...there are 2 more pair of socks i forgot to mention...we're extending the series for 2 more episodes people!

post edit:
sigh. jsut wasn't loving these they've been sent to the frog pond! not the one out back (yes, we actually have a pond with frogs) but hback to the stash to wait for the proper pattern and time

what do you do

with a beautiful day off? well we went for a "scent"ic drive out to the beach. we being the dog. and me. she loves to stick her nose out the window and smell where we are going. we took a few lonely roads. ok, so maybe like 10 little roads. i make turns at random when i'm not in a hurry. and can you blame me? just check out the view! it really was spectacular. i would love to live out this way! we finally arrived at north beach in point reyes national seashore. they have a few beaches where leashed pets are allowed. i snacked on a quick lunch of tomatoes, figs, raisins, and almonds (from the farmer's market again) then we headed down to the water. my baby is 12 and she's never seen the ocean. i must be a terrible mother or something. she was just staring and staring. she couldn't get enough. after repeatedly chasing and running away from the waves for a half an hour she was content to just sit back and relax on a dune. and then she stood and told me it was ti...
