[RebeccaVelasquez]

donna - love the new page!! thanks for adding my link... wow, sure shows me how much work i need to do going from your page to mine :b

[Donna]

Thanks, Rebecca! Don't worry, you will get there! Besides, I have been doing this stuff for years.

I started my first sock last night, and finished it up this morning! It's so comfy!! I posted pictures in my blog! I have a feeling I will be making more than one pair of socks...as soon as I am able to buy more yarn for other pairs!!

[Donna]

Chelle, your sock is excellent! I'm going to do a sock photo gallery, may I include yours?

[MommaChelle]

Of course! Do you want the picture of just the one sock? I will email you the picture

[Donna]

Whatever you prefer. The one sock is fine or if you want to wait until you've finished both that's fine, too. :bigsmile

[RebeccaVelasquez]

i love the sock!!! that just makes me more excited to get to do the ones i've chosen --- man, i've gotta get this baby blanket done ====can we find a crochet one of these guys?

[Donna]

can we find a crochet one of these guys?

I've looked all over the web and there isn't one. I'd like to make one, but haven't made the time!

Woo hoo! I just bid on some sock yarn on ebay. I hope i win it! I want to start my socks! <img border=0 src="http://img28.photobucket.com/albums/v84/crochetville/clap.gif" />

 

oops, I broke my yarn diet though...

[Chie]

Can I join too?

I have not picked up a pattern or yarn yet, but I am so tempted by the socks Chelle and Tiff are making. Great job girls!

 

I will start working on my sock today! :bigsmile

[Donna]

Oh, yes, Chie, please do join us! :woohoo I'm adding you to the list. Chelle's and Tiff's socks are inspiring, aren't they?! :bigsmile

tiff -

My poor little sock is sitting at my bedside, tempting me to work on it... (the doily on table was made by my great-great grandmother)

 

 

But I have to clean, mom-in-law is going to be here tomorrow..

[MommaChelle]

Beautiful doily! That is wonderful that you have something like that to treasure from your great-great grandmother. No one else in my family crochets (just my sister and I), maybe someday I will pass on a crochet treasure to my great great grandkids

 

Your sock is coming along nicely! I've started my second sock and should be done with it today. Then I will be making a sock for my best friend in red...she loves red! And the book you posted Tiff where your sock pattern is from, I like the fun fur look on the top of the red sock it lists with the book. I dont know if she's a fun fur kind of gal, but we'll see

I was blessed to inherit about 10 doilies made by my great- and great-great grandmothers recently. My great-grandfather is still alive, he was just downsizing to a smaller home and gave us our family heirlooms a little early. I ended up with the "leftovers" once they were split between my grandmother, mom and aunt. I got all of the colored thread doilies because they thought they were "ugly" but I think the patterns are just beautiful.

 

I'm thinking about ordering the Crocheted Socks! book from Amazon but I'm waiting until a few new crochet books that I'm dreaming about are released so that it can come in one order.

[Chie]

Thanks Donna!

 

I crocheted all day today, and my first pair of socks are done already! :rollin

 

I posted a picture of them on my blog so please come and see.

[Donna]

Your socks are fabulous, Chie!

[Julie]

I need to go back and read every post here, but am too impatient to do that and want to show off the socks I made over the weekend. Yes, I'm bad. <img border=0 src="http://img28.photobucket.com/albums/v84/crochetville/frog1.gif" />

I'm trying to decide how many pairs do I want to make. Plenty I'm sure, there are so many beautiful sock yarns out there that it would be hard to do just one or two pair of socks. <img border=0 src="http://img28.photobucket.com/albums/v84/crochetville/wha.gif" />

[Donna]

Fabulous, Julie! <img border=0 src="http://img28.photobucket.com/albums/v84/crochetville/clap.gif" />

[Chie]

Thank you Donna!

 

I really enjoyed making socks. Actually I am surprised I enjoyed it as much as I did!

[Chie]

Julie, I love the color of your socks! Wonderful job:thumbsup

[Julie]
