    Socks are comforting

    Hi there...I'm still a bad blogger. B and I decided that the best thing for us would be to be friends rather than anything more, and it has been a hard adjustment for me. It really is the best thing for both of us, and we have been able to keep talking, so that's good, but it does change things a bit.
    For comforting, mindless knitting I've been working on numerous socks. This is the 2nd of 4 socks that are currently on needles...this is the "Little Arrowhead Lace" pattern from Charlene Schurch's "More Sensational Knitted Socks" and the yarn is Skinny Duets in Platinum Sun. I really love the colorway, as it is unusual and I love the pattern.
    I'm saving my pennies (literally) to buy a spinning wheel and I've saved about 3/4 of what I need by keeping my spare change in a jar and by selling some of my yarn stash...that was a little challenging for me, but it has worked! I'll be listing some yarn on the Destash blog soon, so if you need some sock yarn or some Lamb's Pride Bulky you'll have to check it out.
