socks

there was a frenzy of sock knitting just before christmas. my friend brenda inspired me with her beautiful socks. so i decided in the last moment to make socks for my sisters in law & their hubbies. what i did not really consider was the time issue. a mere month and a half for 4 pair of socks. two of them knit in back, not fun to knit without daylight. well you can imagine how my evenings and nights looked like.
