holey socks!

Both pair of my pretty hand knit socks have holes! Apparently, I'm hard on heels ;) I've been searching for info on darning...as well as new ways to knit hardy heels! This is one of my favorite new tutorials.

Both heels - one worse than the other :(

so many pics!

Ugh! I have a ton of pictures to get off of my digital camera... and I cant find the USB cord that fits :(

DD age 4 and I have been Geocaching lately, so we have treasure pics to share! The Winter weather is chilly in Kansas right now but, we've had endless gorgeous days to go exploring. Yesterday I was snapping like crazy at bald eagles during a walk!

So, until I can get those pics up, I offer this... a pic of my new handmade socks! A knitty friend made them for me using Shalimar Yarns Zoe Sock in "Fairy Dust".  The pattern is Berlin Muster.
