Default Jaywalking

Hey everyone!
Just thought I'd show you what i've been up to the past week at lunch, breaks and any free minute I have
After finding this yummy sock yarn on sale together with Karen's help of telling myself I wanted to knit another pair of socks( I swore after the first pair I was NEVER knitting any again) I think I'm in LOOOOOOOOOOVE!!!
Let me just start by saying the free patterns that come on the ball of wool are CRAP! (for socks anyway) DON"T USE THEM!!! Thats what turned me insane in the first place. So anyway here's my pride and joy, can't wait to get the second one on the needles so i'll be that much closer to wearing them.
I present..........................................





The Jaywalker!

They're great Kelly. You are fabulous with those knitting needles. Love the colour as well. Well done.

We must have a chat on MSN soon. Never have that much time to use it these days. Hope you are keeping well. x x

How cool are they, are they as cosy as they look? I'd have never have thought you'd give up your knitting.

They are magnificent! I had the urge to knit some socks a while back, but they are now so far down my knitting list that it is not going to happen anytime soon. I really really have to finish a blanket and two jackets first. Fortunately the jackets are 3-6 months size, thought that could be very soon after they are born the way they are currently growing!

lol oh Wendy I'd never give up KNITTING, just give up knitting certain things that make me go insane.
But I'm glad I gave it a second shot!

Well they are FINISHED!! Sock 2 took a bit longer than sock one because I've been a tad busy but they are finally finished so I can wear and admire them. Of course I've got pics!
