Secret Socks and Sea Socks!
I got word from my SP that she had received her package, so here are one of the secret pairs of socks I knit recently:
No, my SP's feet are not that small, but she does have a newborn that I hear they fit quite well.
Pattern: baby socks from my head
Yarn: Ruby Sapphire in Vera (leftover from my Sockapalooooza socks from MJ!)
I really love the colors of this yarn and the socks I got were very comfortable, but I did find it a bit splitty while working with it. Worth it, though!
And now for some BIG news...
I'm going on Sea Socks '08!
I've been discussing a trip with my mom for a while, and we were going back and forth between Hawaii and Sea Socks to Alaska. I told her how I wanted to go on Sea Socks but none of my knitting buddies could go with me, but I wasn't sure that she'd be interested in it.
Now, my mom does know how to knit. In fact, she taught me the basics when I was a little kid. But she has never knit socks. (!) We already had plans to remedy this problem over Thanksgiving and now it's even more urgent! Tonight while talking to her she said she'd like to go on the cruise, so we're on! I'm very excited.

How lucky you are to be able to share your knitting with your mom this way. And the cruise sounds fantastic!
I'm so jealous! first, that you get to go on the cruise, and second, that you get to share knitting with your mom. How much fun!
Ok, I have to clarify, it's not that we (your knitting buds) don't want to go, it's that it's too expensive! You can be our representative for the group. ;-)
