I’ve finished a pair of socks, and it happens to be socktober. (How did I manage that?) I might like these so much that I’m going to cast on another equally unfancy sock or two. These are 64 st socks with 2×2 rib at the cuff, knit from the cuff down. I loosely followed the Knitmore Girls Vanilla Sock pattern after abandoning the Gentleman’s Fancy Sock I began with.)
Honestly, I wish I hadn’t finished knitting sock #2 quite so soon. See, I’ve spent my morning dealing with an unpleasant stomach bug, and all I’ve been able to do thus far today is sit quietly and knit. (No coffee, even!) I just ate some oatmeal, and so far, it seems to be staying right where I want it. (TMI?) I’m hoping to swap knitting for writing this afternoon — but I guess if working is impossible, knitting is the next best thing. And now I’ve got a new pair of socks!
Also, a new pair of glasses. What do you think? (Can this rooster pull off this look?)
Boh doesn’t seem to mind the new frames — so long as he can stay curled up on the couch. I’m happy to let him handle that part of today’s to-do list!

The glasses are adorable! They look so great on you, and they really open up your face. Lovely!
Love the socks, and the frames–you can totally rock those out, Rooster!
Awesome socks and awesome frames. I hope the bug passes soon … snuggles for Boh. And a high five to you for your head-to-toe snazziness.
Great new frames! Love the socks. Happy Soctober!
Those socks look awesome. Makes me want to pull out the two skeins I have of that color.
Hope you feel better!
Love the socks! They look like Orange Marmelade cats!! Love the glasses, too. I have to go tomorrow to get my lenses updated but I think I am going to stick with the old frames…
Your socks, and your glasses, are super cute :D
Also, I also just got over a stomach bug, so I feel your pain. I’d offer hugs, but that won’t help :(
Marmelade socks! They’re beautiful and you look very hip in those glasses. Hope you’ll feel better soon!
SOCK LOVE at it’s best :}
