I keep my blog as a personal record of what I'm up to, which might be seen as working towards "An elegant sufficiency, content, retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books, ease and alternate labour, useful life"

I'm certainly not there yet.  There is quite some way to go!

Sock in the loose

The latest sock is done and set free after a couple of cast offs because the top was too tight. Though it now looks a bit frilly, it's still not ever-so-loose (or maybe it's my fat calves that are the problem?) I have yet to be convinced that the toe up method is the one for me!

Lovely sock!

I enjoyed the portrait quiz below. I'm delighted to find I should have been painted by Klimt!

Pretty colour. Deep breaths for sock two!

I'm just idling wondering what cast off you used on your lovely sock? When I finally get to that point on mine I'm going to try the EZ sewn one. Like you, however, I won't be in a hurry to do any more toe-up socks.

Of course, that should read "idly" not "idling". The heat is making me lose my ability to use the English language. LOL!
