    Poor Freeby - I shall dedicate the entirety of my cross-stitching to you....though there may also be a few swear words, as it's neither my natural craft, or something I particularly enjoy doing....I just like the end result!

    My circular knitted socks look like I did them with my fingers crossed...and they might just fit if I keep my toes crossed (((sobs into brew as half her hobnob has just sunk to the bottom of it))):(

    Sorry you're sobbing - but your hobnob trauma just made me laugh out loud...so I have a soft spot for what is clearly now a very soft biscuit. I am clearly a very bad person! :o

    Socks are most certainly not something I ever intend doing...they'd have me going all Buffy with the sharp pointy ends of the circulars....so no matter what your socks look like, I consider them an artistic marvel, and bow down in awe to your skill. :D

    Missus Knitty,

    I know I have been MIA today.

    Being someone who is impecunious and not being a ergophobic (or jumentous) I have been doing much quaestuarying.

    And at the risk of being a bit of a Philosophunculist when all I really do is lalocheziaI shall now take my steatopygic and leave you in peace and obambulate off to bed.


    Kench, kench :rotfl:
