Socks and Such

It's been a while since I have shown

my socks that I continue to knit.

My knitting is rather boring.

I knit pretty much the same thing over and over

with different yarn.

Every now and then I'll change the pattern a bit,

but it's still a sock.

Doing this is mindless, easy and portable.

Plus, they are so functional!!

The second sock of this pair needs to be made,

but I got a little bored with this yarn.

Not my favorite at all.

I love, love, love this yarn.

It's "Socks that Rock" and is so nice to knit.

These socks will be warm!

 

I've cast on another pair with another "Socks that Rock" yarn.

The stripes and colors in this yarn are very patriotic.

There is another single sock around here somewhere, waiting for a mate to be made.

It's probably in a bag somewhere. :)

Yesterday my new quilt group met and we made this little paper-pieced tree.

It was an adventure since some of the group hadn't paper-pieced before,

but the trees all turned out so cute!

Paper piecing is not my favorite thing to do by any means,

but these little projects are fun.

I'll probably turn this into a pot holder.

Last night I went to a friends house to make this decoration that we've

been wanting to make for a while.

We finally had all of our vintage ornaments gathered,

the boards were cut and painted

and the canning jar rings were purchased.

I just love this!

This year I have been really drawn to the vintage decorations

for some reason.

Now if I can just get my house decorated!

I am linking to Patchwork Times and WhoopWhoop (sidebar) today.

Happy Creating!
