I haven't been listing a lot of new yarns lately because I have been so busy with other things lately. One of the things I am working on is a new knitted sock pattern. I was inspired after going to the Renaissance Faire a few months ago to write a Faire Sock pattern. It is a knee high fitted sock. It has a shaped calf so that it will stay up properly. They are very fitted with custom measurements for the ribbing, calf, and ankle to make it a perfect fit for any leg! You can see pictured the yellow socks. Those are mine and the prototype. I am now making the 2nd blue one which is for my husband. His leg is a bit skinnier than mine but taller. I will make some for my 9 yr old last and then it goes to my tester, Kathy:) If she can successfully make one that fits her well with this pattern I will be ready to run with it. It would be helpful if I had a better idea of the range of leg sizes. If you don't mind taking a moment to send in your measurements I would be most grateful! What I need is:
Circumference just below the knee.
Circumference of the widest part of the calf.
Circumference of ankle.
You can post it here in the replies or to my e-mail epicurus000@msn.com
The other thing I have been working on is this paper flower I am going to be teaching at the
CHN Family EXPO in August! This will be taught the Thursday night before the EXPO begins for all the poeple who come early to help set up and get ready:) I am bringing pins so we can wear them during the EXPO. They are really neat, easy to make, and made out of crepe paper.
