[...] a sock out of Alchemy Juniper, two socks out of Numma Numma, a sock out of Lana Grossa Solo, and my second Sunshine Sock to finish. It would be nice if I’d finish these things and not start anything else in the [...]

I like the term sneak up, but I try not to check out the site on Mondays even knowing it is happening. Avoiding the temptation until the things I’d want to knit wiht most are gone!

Of course, I do end up spending a lot of time singing the Out of Stock blues.

I’m sure I had a pair of slouchy socks that shade of yellow in the 80s. I used to wear them with blue shoes. It was the 80s, what can I say.

As for marketing schemes…I like the idea of “sneak-ups”. I guess there’s no accounting for taste…kind of like yellow socks and blue shoes, I guess.

AWWWW – I thought the Sneak up was uniquely Loopy Eweish – too bad you felt compelled to change your signature verbage to suit a few complainers.

Yep I had an easy bake oven and loved it – I actually think I still have that little pizza pan that came with it.

LL Butterscotch – YUMMMM – I have 4 skeins of Fisherman in that color just waiting for the perfect gansey pattern to be found.

Here’s to many sunny days in November for the ewes. Mel

Today looked for sure like it would be a rainy one, but now the sun is peeking out and I feel so much better!

I like your Sunshine socks! I still have to finish the pair I started in the green yarn (CTH?).

Oh, and don’t forget about the penguin tin! It’s almost time!

I lost my Leia dog the end of last week. I’ve decided to make Leia socks–from the PawPrints and Whiskers pattern, in Lime & Violet Intentions Connection. I think those will be a great way to think of her, and snuggly for my feet besides!

I have the Swirl Socks in progress for my DIL in Creatively Dyed “Hot Hot Hot” (all from TLE of course). I love the pattern–1 sock is done and the other is started. I’m working it top down by the pattern. I’m not sure if I could reverse it to do toe up.
Love your color and love the wedding pic. It is hard to see them grow up.

You make me want to cast on new socks so badly. I have too many holiday knitting projects to do first! Ack!!

I’m so glad to hear that some other guy didn’t marry Web Guy’s girlfriend. And that a couple of weeks ago, you had a hard time leaving that puppy behind, not WH. That had me laughing out loud. Language can be so strange sometimes!

I love the bright colour of your new sock. Now that it’s so dark in the evenings, we need things like that.
