I finished my lacy socks on Thursday and then wore them out last night to see some friends I haven’t seen altogether since October. It was lovely to see everyone and we had a lovely evening with lots of lovely food, including a wonderful chocolate meringue with cream and raspberries that is “to die for” (recipe and picture here) and I’m not exaggerating. My socks were a success and were commented on, they are supposed to have a ribbon threaded around the top under the rib and then tied and I think that would help keep them up but they did only need pulling up twice so that’s much better than when I wore knee socks to school!! I have a ball and a half of the Elle Stretch DK left so I may have to buy some more in a contrasting colour and knit some more stripy socks with it. I love that it’s stretchy!! So yet again I don’t have anything on the needles and am feeling lost. NOTE TO SELF: I must remember to have something ready to go when I get near the end of the next project.
