Wow, what a bunch of

Wow, what a bunch of lovely people you all are :)
Anytime I need an ego boost, I'll just go back and read yesterdays comments!

Next up in Finishing Week - six sox Stashbuster Spirals Socks. (Try saying that five times fast.

This wasn't the finished project that I planned to show today, but I forgot to take a picture of the planned presentation. And the model is at school.
I enjoyed these socks. Elann Sock It To Me yarn, was cream but I dyed it with some Landscapes dyes. As Evelyn picked up when I showed them a few weeks back, they'll match my Clapotis :) The colours are nice and bright, but the blue just doesn't photograph well.
I now have nothing on the needles. I do still have to make the second of Emily's beaded socks. But what next? I think I'll swatch for the Lacy Poncho and finally get started on that.
We're having gorgeous weather this week, although it's starting to get a bit hot again. We're heading for a maximum temperature off 33C (91F) today.
Twink likes to keep an eye on the weather.

Socks look great! I knew I would like them when you showed the dyed balls to us! I LOVE THE BRIGHT COLOURS! Question. when changing the colours for the heels to red..Did you graft the new colour in? I have always wanted to know how to do a different colour heel without the socks feeling fully at the heel! lol

Twink is such a cutie! Makes me want to get a bunny :D
