South African Socks
Jess from Tat-ilicious asked me to make socks for her fiance in the colours of the South African flag. Here they are, temporarily displayed on my husband's rather lumpy feet. How did I do the toes? I did the top part first, working back and forth in rows, using three little balls of yarn. Then I did the underside, knitting the last stitch in each row together with a loop from the upper side. Fiddly, but effective.
On another subject, twice this morning I have tried to comment on other blogs and had my verification that I'm not a robot rejected! Perhaps I'm a robot. I may go back to Jon's blog, but am not going to go back to Tatting Fool's. Luckily both were very short comments.

ReplyDeleteThese are so cool!
ReplyDeleteI love them! I am so excited about the socks! I'm going to have to get a picture of all three of us together wearing our special socks. :o) Thank you again for doing this for me.

That's too bad about the commenting, that's why I don't have that pesky verification on my commenting. My glasses broke a while back and seeing is already a task. :o)
DeleteThey'll start their journey to you next time I go to town.
Since it's possible to vet comments before they show, I can't see the necessity for the verification.
Great socks!! :)
