On another note, I finished the heel for my first toe up sock yesterday. I worked a short row heel for the first time and when I was done, I got a big surprise. Did you know you don't have to pick up stitches and do all those gusset decreases afterwards when you work a short row heel?? Well I didn't until yesterday. That was a pleasant surprise for sure to know that when I was done with the heel - I was DONE with the heel! Moving on to the leg...................Merry Christmas to me! I learn something new everyday!

They are just gorgeous. And, congrats on the sock adventure.
ya know, I actually like turning heels. I'm so weird. But the yarn fairy just came today and brought me some wick yarn to do a lovely pair of toe-up socks that I found on ravelry by the name of red dwarf socks. They're done on size 4 needles so that's right up my alley for my ever-aging eyes.
Mr. Man has been busy with his bowls. That boy sure can throw some pottery!
has Mr. Man ever thought about painting some peace signs on his bowls or perhaps the symbol of "om"?
as a matter of fact I have a "peaceful knitter" bowl in right now gettin' all fired up. Should be out sometime Thursday.
Way to go, Mr. Man!!!!!!!!!
There's just something satisfying about turning a short row heel ( or any heel) and knowing that it's finished. It's my favorite part of a sock. Love the bowls warlock, I'll have to shop after Christmas - No dollars left.
