Boy did I need to get my nails done.  This is a video made with a Nokia N95 I got in Russia.  I was showing my Uncle Lee how the phone worked and how to make socks.

This really is a fantastic affordable yarn, ever so soft and fluffs up so nice.  I had 16 skeins to make 8 socks.

Based on my tension as show above I knit up some extra large socks.

• 4o rows in 3 x 1 rib
• 70 rows to heel
• 70 rows to toes

Now on to sewing up the toes…..

Purses coming hot off the sewing machines.

Mean while on the legare 400 the new yarn Serenity

A new line of yarn from Deborah Norville. The serenity line comes in 4 different weights (Sock, Sport, Worsted & Cunky). The yarn is incredible soft and best of all is machine washable.

• 50% wool, 25% Bamboo, 25% Nylon, 1.76 oz
• 1.76 ounces, 50 grams, 230 yards, 210 meters
• Knit Gauge: Size 1-3 (2.25-3.5mm) needles, 6.75-9 stitches per inch
• Crochet Gauge: Size B-1 – E-4 (2.25-3.5mm) hook, 6.75-9 stitches per inch

I have finally said I am going to kill my sock yarn stash and make a few socks.  Okay more than a few.  This is not even the half of them so many toes to sew yet.

I have been working on this Tree Jacket forever since last year maybe when it was a project with the Sexy Knitters Kal.  I do love the yarn I am using though Dream In Color Classy, it has to be the one of the best yarns to work with.  As you can see I still have a way to go but someday, oh yes someday.

I have been messing with this Dashing for a while.  I have done 4 gloves total 2 in the yarn shown. Two in others will add the pictures later.  I guess I need to make the other 2 then I will have 3 pair.  The first 2 I did on double points on the pair shown was done on 2 circulars at the same time.
