To frog or not to frog
That is the question! Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the holes and bumps of outrageous knitting or to take dpn's against a sea of troubles, and by frogging end them. Fnar.
Toe up socks. Why? Part of me thinks I should soldier on even though I’m not really enjoying it but the other part of me , the one that knows that all three ‘men’ in the house really want some socks, is nagging me to undo them and knit a few pairs of standard top downs and then see how I feel about going back to the project later. It’s just such unknown territory. I really like the free pattern that comes with Mail Order Opal and I know where I am with that. This is what they look like so far:
The woman running the workshop has put a lot of effort into it as well and I don’t want her to feel unappreciated.
Oh for Pete’s sake woman listen to yourself,! Rip the damn things out and be done with it! There, that was easy - rofl.
‘Himself’ is still languishing on the sofa although he seems a lot brighter today. My middle boy never seems to catch a cold or anything. It’s amazing how different they can be

Hi hazelnut :) They have holes and they're a bit sort of baggy. I might go back to it later.
I think No. 3 son is feeing better as he's up and about and anoying the bejeebers out of me now. One of the upsides of M.E (if there is one) is that I don't get colds and flu. Mind you I feel like I have the flu every day so it's not much of a bonus!
I knitted some normal socks out of that exact same yarn - http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y85/purlpower/frippery%20purlpower/IMGP6947.jpg
It's a lovely, unusual colourway isn't it?
