I like to think of myself as a storyteller. Mostly I tell stories about knitting.

Lycaena virgaureae Socks

Lycaena virgaureae Socks

Another pair of socks is finished and I find myself reflecting. I hadn’t considered that using the scraps from old socks would make me think of the socks these leftovers originated from. Now, my scrappy Lycaena virgaureae socks are like a scrapbook for 6 other pairs of socks. Well, 5 finished pairs of socks and a Texas Stars cowl that I plan to knit. at some point. after I knit all the socks.

    Katie,

    So beautiful. I can’t keep up wits your knitting sock queue, but you always keep me inspired. We’ll see how much knitting gets done in this snow blizzard.
