Knitting and Sweaters

Well, I sent Jinx a picture of my sock and she said I should post it. So here it is. This is how far I have gotten on my sock. Not very far, but it is better than nothing. Jinx said that it was looking rather large I said that it might be. She said to rip it out. I think she is crazy! I ain’t ripping anything out. I only do a sock once. She said that I would have to do another one. I told her that I was only doing one sock and would find a one-legged friend to wear it for me. She laughed. I will finish it and do the second one, but I am not sure that I will do another pair. I think she has more fun doing it than I do.

I am enjoying this knitting stuff but I am a starter and not a finisher. I have a scarf that I started last year, a sock, and now I have just started a sweater for Jaxon, the new puppy. I am hoping that I will finish that because the weather has turned a little chilly and he isn’t so big. Also, if it rains he will need something to keep him dry. He is such a little thing that he doesn’t have much body heat to lose. Also, he won’t get very big so I will have to make more. I need to find a crochet pattern, I prefer crochet. So I just crocheted a sweater for him. A little trial and error, but I think it worked out well. I am sure all will let me know how it looks.

So, one sweater finished and a sock started. Hopefully I will finish the socks before next January. I’ll keep you posted about all my crafty stuff with yarn. I did finish a blanket for Jinx’s sister’s baby (who is not born yet). It is beautiful and soft. Piglet 1 wants one too, just a little bigger. We will see how that goes.
