I’ve been knitting a lot to build up my stock for selling on Etsy and at Bestemors in Mystick Village this coming winter season. In between items specifically made for sale, I’ve been doing personal projects as well. I deliberately created a project for myself to keep my mind occupied while I was recovering from knee surgery. I knit socks for friends of ours, one for each member of the family. I started with the hearts pair last November right after the surgery. The orange skull socks were made second, followed by the diamond patterned ones. The white skull socks were finally finished about a month ago. I’m so glad I did it. Our friends have happy, warm feet and the knitting got me through a very difficult time. Now I need to knit wacky socks for the three of us!

Rainbow diamonds for the Mrs.
