I finally finished my first embossed leaves sock. I absolutely love the yarn and the pattern too.I really like the pattern because there always was something different to do to keep it interesting (i.e not too many straight pattern repeats - yawn).
Here are some pics - they don't show off the colours too well........



.......so I'm glad I took this pic of the second skein before I wound it. I think this might be my favourite colour combo ever. So far.I just switched the TV on and Martin Bashir's interview with Princess Diana is on. It seems like a lifetime ago when she died, and I think this interview was filmed not too long before her death. She was so incredible, it is sad that she never knew how incredible we all thought she was. What a terribly sad time for our country and for me too - I remember crying lots. Lots.
I think she would be proud of her boys.
Speaking of her boys. Mine are going to school in 10 days time. Tick tock, tick tock...,..
We haven't had a picture of them in a while, have we. I'll see what I can do next time.
Happy weekend.

Wow. Those socks look great. I love the color. It was really sad watching all of that Princess Di stuff on tv. It was on right after the Elvis stuff was on. :(
