Knitting Progress

I finished up the pair of socks I’ve been working on.  They are just basic stockinette.

The yarn is Fortissima Colori/Socka Color (Color #8).  I knit them using size 2 dpn’s.

I am working on tier 3 of the Forest Path Stole.   I hope to post pictures tomorrow.

Hard day today at Chez Wannabe.  Lots of time on the phone with my mother. Mom had a hard day today and was just beside herself.  She has realized that my stepfather is dying.  He will not recover.  He will never come home.  To top it off, he didn’t even know who she was today. 

I will likely be heading to North Carolina here in the next week or so.  Not sure of the arrangements.  I have talked to my mother about stopping the dialysis.  She’s not quite there yet but I imagine she will be within the next week or two.  I think I may be going back and forth a few times in the  next month or so.

  1. So sorry to hear about your stepfather and mom. It’s very hard to watch someone you love slipping away, harder when you have to make the decision to let them go. I’ll be thinking of you all.

  2. The socks are lovely, are they for you?

    I’m sad to hear about your stepdad. Letting go is so hard even when you know it’s for the best. And being so far away is so tough on you! ((Kris)) I’m keeping y’all in my thoughts and prayers.

  3. The socks are very nice – I really like the colors.

    I’m so sorry about your stepdad and what your mom is going through. Your family is in my thoughts!

  4. I’m all about plain stockinette socks these days…easy to knit, no thinking involved. They’re super-fast. And they let the yarn just do it’s thing.

    I like yours with the dark yarn, yet just a bit of color change to them.
