An odd thing happened here, all of a sudden. In the middle of a series of escapades that felt to me like they would never end at all (and indeed, I'd rather accepted that there would be no end at all) it all came to a peaceful and thorough end. My goal for the Christmas knitting (which I had fallen rather behind on) was to finish it all by 12th night... and I did. Tuppers socks are done and will be off to him in the mail in short order.

The pattern is from Classics in Kroy (Patons #922) , a wonderful booklet that I've had for years. My copy is seriously ratted up, but my google-fu failed to find anywhere that this was still available. Anybody know?

While I was on a roll I finished Susan's scarf...

Another beautiful Just Enough Ruffles, and I think that this time I found the perfect yarn, in
