Knew Knittted Sox

Here I am starting my second pair of sox. I've discovered Knitpicks and their inexpensive yarns. Have gone in with a friend to take advantage of the bulk discount.

And because it is Ash Wednesday, I am starting a new routine. Instead of giving up something for Lent, I'm taking up an addition. I will do something physical everday for 40 days. And, no, knitting does not count.

Heel & toe and off I go! Ready to start the heel flap on these spring colored sox.
