I've been working on socks a lot lately, since they're small and portable - my boys are in art classes one day a week now, and their ages are such that, of course, they can't be in the same class, so I have to sit for 2 hours straight each week - perfect time to knit! … Continue reading WiP Wednesday

I cannot believe that it has been so long since I posted last! The holidays were so busy that I kept forgetting to post!  Now that I'm getting back into our normal routine I'll try to get back into the habit of posting more regularly.
