I’ve started yet another sock, this time for the October SKA Sockdown on Ravelry. The pattern is Esther by Steffi Linden and it’s my first time doing a picot edge cuff. As always, I’m using luscious merino yarn from Violet Green. Here are the first few rows:
I’ve split the skein into two balls and as soon as I have knitted the picot cuffs on DPNs, I’m going to have a go at knitting both socks at once on a pair of circulars. This should make it easier to get both socks identical 😀
There is something to be said about eating dinner together as a family. Whether “family” to you means parents and siblings, or a couple of great friends, breaking bread together around the dinner table is what life is really about. At my parent’s house, what is just as fun as the table is all that goes on in the kitchen. It is a “one butt kitchen” and is most definitely a tight squeeze when multiple people are in there. We cook and do dishes and have many, many dance parties. Some of my favorite memories have happened right in this kitchen! That is why I resonate so strongly with Dietz & Watson’s #ChooseTheTable campaign. Spend more time with your loved ones around the table and share your experience by hashtagging #ChooseTheTable.
