I do thrummer slippers for personnel on the submarines. I also do cast socks for the poor souls with a broken leg or foot and bare toes. It is like a big sock but open up the front so it can be velcrod up the front.<br />I started socks and I am addicted. I do two at a time on circular needles from the toe. I use Judy's magic cast on and then the Estonian cant off that is nice and stretchy on the cuff. <br />Good to hear about you writing career. <br />blessings patty<br />patty-anne-lea.blogspotpattyanneleahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12616011683696742783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3179647218464266394.post-14993544680015562642010-02-07T17:21:54.597-05:002010-02-07T17:21:54.597-05:00I just found you through six sox (I'm also a m...I just found you through six sox (I'm also a member), when I was cleaning out my old digests. Great to have a new guy in the group. Even though I am female, I am always encouraged when a man joins a knitting group! <br /><br />My boy cat passed away last week, so we are a one-cat family, now, with just his sister. I am so glad you could make a home for a rescued animal. That is also the way we do it. My daughter named our girl after the dining cars on Thomas the Tank Engine (she was only six) so now we have Miss Wonderblimp (14 lbs.) My daughter is now 21 and feels like she cursed the poor girl to obesity!Margiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10238870291486811312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3179647218464266394.post-6803215649141558382010-01-19T10:47:10.868-05:002010-01-19T10:47:10.868-05:00A wonderful pair of socks.

And they are especially nice when knitted from a hand dyed yarn!<br />see here: http://buffalogirlsdesign.com/socks.php<br />Cheers<br />LidaLidahttp://buffalogirlsdesign.com/cards_knitting.phpnoreply@blogger.com
