Saturday: Finished socks. Weighed socks. Went on research binge to figure out how to send socks to Norway with reasonable efficiency and without breaking the bank.I ended up using Global Priority Mail from the post office. Huge envelope, flat rate fee of $8.50, and no hassle. I probably could have mailed it for less by weight, but the free Tyvek envelope looked like it could really take a beating without tearing up. Let's hope!
Today: Mailed socks, went to wild Halloween party full of kids, followed by piano lessons for one of my guys. Need to make dinner.
Tonight: Imminent collapse.
| Started: | 19 October 2006 |
| Finished: | 28 October 2006 | Pattern: | Yarn Monkey's International Sock of DOOM |
| Yarn: | Ball band MIA. 100% mercerized cotton, in a dark bluish green. One ball per sock, with a bit left over on each. |
| Needles: | Old pink aluminums, size US 5 |
| Notes: | This stuff is like knitting with string - no sproing at all. I hope the ribbing is enough to keep everything conforming to my victim's feet. I received half of a sock from Julie in CA - she'd turned the heel - and finished the pair for MagFly in Norway. |
