Let's talk about socks

My exciting Christmas news is that I finished two socks before Christmas day.  My mum will most likely be receiving socks every year now.  BIG drama on Christmas eve, I had to go to Truro (OMG, where will I park??!) to buy wool because I ran out about five rows to the end.  Couldn't find the same random wool I got in Beckenham about five years ago so the end of one sock is a different colour. 

Progress on the train, as always...
Done!!

  1. Love them! So clever. How annoying that you ran out of wool! That would have pissed me off no end. But you can't tell in the pic. Can't believe you braved the parking in Truro! How are you mum's last year socks? Still going strong?

  2. Socks from last year doing well (for now). When I was at home she did 'fess up to shrinking a cowl I made her a couple of years ago. My mum famously shrinks everything I make her. Was so annoyed about the wool! I was feeling smug at actually nearly finishing them so something had to go wrong I suppose... And don't worry, I parked in Tescos. Free parking for 2 hours.
