A New Use for My Knitting Bowl.

 A new use for my wooden knitting bowl.  Ok, I realize that I am short enough for my feet not to touch the floor in most chairs in my house.  Today by accident I found out that my knitting bowl lets me keep my feet flat while knitting.  This allows better posture.  It works on the couch and chairs.  I will not try this with my ceramic or metal knitting bowls though.  

My socks in the picture are by Sock Panda dot com.  The great thing about Sock Panda is that they give back socks for every pair sold to charity. I have used them for 2 years.  They have subscriptions that make great gifts. A new pair of socks monthly.  

Frogs and Other Things

Today while looking for a lost skein of Mary Gavin’s yarn, which is still hiding.  How could I possibly lose a skein of yarn wound on to a bobbin for knitting my house? I also found a few projects that needed to be frogged. I also threw out the pattern that came with the very colorful sock blank that had been dyed in rainbow colors, this will make a wonderful shawlette.

I am not quite sure how the wonderful people at Sock Panda dot com manage to match my socks with my current actives, but today’s shipment was of frogs, rip it, rip it. This is the perfect gift for someone who likes socks that are not plain.  The bonus is that for every pair of socks you buy 1 pair is given to charity.  How cool is that?

I also finished 3 more dog pillows and along with 4 hand woven rag rugs Eric and his aide help me to deliver them to our local  humane Society.  Thanks to Google maps for helping find it and miss all the construction and road work projects.

*Sock Panda , Mary Gavin Yarn’s, and Google Maps did not pay any advertising fees.  I already use the products.  Also I have gifted several friends with a sock panda club.
