Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: starts with or contains “ph.” Find a word with the letters “ph” in it and use it as your prompt. Have fun!
Phrom now on ‘eph’ is spelled with ph instead oph with an “f”. Except this darn spell check will probably make me crazy just trying. Who was I kidding with this pheat? Just me. Pht!
I can’t stand having empty needles when I have yarn for them. So a new pair of socks started. Two-At-A-Time, Chiaogoo red-laced cable needles. Toe done.
Mixing leftovers from Son’s and his special lady’s socks to make a crazy pair. Again, Two-At-A-Time Toe-up, Chiaogoo red-laced cable needles.
I still have a lot of this yarn left. The family seems to like the slipper socks made from this. Two-At-A-Time, Toe-up, Chiaogoo red-laced cable needles.
And the challenge. Leg-Warmers. 7 inches done. Only 20 more to go! Two-At-A-Time cuff down. I’ve never done these before, but I’m learning as I go. 🤗
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “bake.” Use it as a noun or a verb, use it any way you’d like. Have fun!
Our half-baked Christmas Tree-o.
Yeah. These poor trees may be on their last year. I even ordered a live tree, well, Rosemary bush shaped like a tree. But it won’t get here until AFTER Christmas. One thing we realized this morning as my brother did the heavy lifting, as I played director, was the lights wouldn’t work. So they will be a purchase to make later this week.
Hopefully, we’ll have a festive mood by the actual day. We hope we’ll have company. But haven’t a clue what we’ll cook. I’m not into cooking. But I hope we can find a frozen veggie lasagna to bake. Otherwise, I have no clue! Christmas Valley is closed on the actual holiday so no restaurant experience for the non-cook.
Look who’s hiding beside and behind the exercise equipment we didn’t have in years before. He’ll give me an uplifting feeling as I ride my stationary bike.
Not a baker not even for the half-baked Christmas 🎄
But have a fully baked Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
Finally! I think I’ve been working on these socks off and on for at least a year. I started off trying Crazy Sick Lady Vanilla Socks on Hiya Hiya Flyers then moved the project to Chiaogoo red-laced short cable needles. All that was too fiddly for me. I eventually transferred the socks to a long Chiaogoo red-laced cable of the same size. Finally, I felt I could finish.
Let me say, I don’t like working too down. I didn’t like how to do the heel. I certainly don’t like doing the Kitchener toe, though I think I did it okay for once.
See the yarn bits left? I was in a game of yarn chicken. But I made it with enough to patch little bits.
I do think I’ll try again on children’s socks. I think it is good to learn other techniques. And practice a few times.
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “to me.” Find a way to use the phrase “to me” in your post. Use it any way you’d like. Enjoy!
That’s easy! Happy Birthday to me!!! I am so blessed with so much family and so many friends. And the line blurs between.
