Socks Finished, No Longer Cursed

The second sock went much faster than the first. I suppose that as the skein diminished, so did its evil potency. :-)

Sunday afternoon:


Sunday evening:

I very much like socks that are coordinated, instead of matching. I think they're more interesting as siblings rather than twins. Come to think of it, for me, that goes for earrings and mittens too.

Why the Signatures Craft Show is worth the $6 admission: NONIA has a booth. Check out these (relatively) inexpensive, good quality 100% wool, handknit mittens. The adult mittens are $20 a pair, but the kids' mittens are only $12.50 a pair. Putting them on is like wearing a piece of Canadian history (the Yarn Harlot explains why, here).


Someone was selling these crocheted fingerpuppets, which I snapped up for - who else? - my nephew.
