I've really been neglecting the ol' blog lately. What with Ravelry and Etsy, I just don't have the time for everything! I miss blogging though, I really do! Since I last "talked" to you all, I've continued to knit Christmas gift socks. I've finished another pair, with the LAST pair almost half done, yeah! I think I'm getting sick of self striping yarn now.
Anyhow, here's the most recently completed pair of gift socks:
Yarn is ONline Supersocke 100 Holiday Color 90.
Over at my Etsy store, I'm having a sale on my Christmas cards, so be sure to go take a look. Here's my most recent offering:
I thought it appropriate to list today, given this:
1. PC010341, 2. PC010353, 3. PC010358, 4. PC010338
Yes, winter is here on the West Coast. Cuppa hot chocolate anyone?
Gorgeous sock yarn!!! Wow, I love it.

Snow!!! Did you move up north? How much did you get?
Love the cat photo against the snowy background. Great socks, like the colours of the sock yarn.
Perfect card, I think I have those stamps or ones like them.
You have more snow than we do on this coast. We had a storm with white-outs and super high winds yesterday however it left no more than a few centimetres of snow on the ground.
Environment Canada is predicting that much of Canada will experience colder temperatures this winter season.
Currently is -18°C with the wind chill.

Wow - I love the colourway on those socks. The colours are perfect. Do you remember where you purchased it?
PS: The snow is hilarious. Was going to be in CR today for the parade with the radio station, but looks like it is cancelled!

WOW! Love the striped socks. :) We are getting our share of snow at the moment, I think we are expecting 6 inches.

Wow! What beautiful snow. Love kitty trouping along the back of the couch. And your socks are cheery enough to ward off the winter blues :)

I love the colors of those socks!! I get sick of self-striping sock yarn easily so I don't have a lot of it. Snow is sooooo pretty but I don't miss shoveling it.

Ah, but when the self-striping comes out so nicely, how can you give it up? Really neat colorway.

What fun colors in those socks! I love it.
yuck, what a lot of snow you have too.

Someone had said it snowed up island, but I wasn't certain if they were just pulling my leg or not. I hope you had a chance to enjoy it.
I know what you mean about Ravelry, Etsy and blogging competing with each other for your time. Time one could be spending knitting. It's difficult to find a balance between them all.
Love the socks.

Gorgeous snow pictures! Snow is in our forecast again this week - I love it when it snows.
Your socks look fantastic - great stripes.
Also - I love the snowflake cards. Perfect for this time of year.

I totally hear you on lack of blogging due to ravelry and other sites. It's even harder now with holiday knitting because it has to stay a secret and can't appear on the blog. The socks are awesome!
What sock blockers would you recommend?
