Ha, I know, that weekend has come and gone. I spent some time doing this…
Yes, having cold beer (good!) outdoors on an uncharacteristically cold day (bad!)….and finished a pair of Child’s First Socks.
Pattern: Child’s First Socks in Knitting Vintage Socks
Material: Sz 1 needles, and a big honking ball of Regia Jubilee India.
Notes: No mods, yea and the yarn is a little too busy for this pattern. But sometimes, you don’t listen to your inner smart-ass. It happens. Fits well though. And those leftovers? Perfect for iPhone cozies.
Waste not, want not. *Whack!* Who am I kidding… there are two hanks of new sock yarn staring back at me as I type this. Now let’s go back to this……
(Unknown beer at Father’s Office, Culver City, CA. Best sweet potato fries.)

Those sock look super comfy. I hope to learn to knit socks later this year. I can’t imagine using size 1 needles though.

Love the beer at Father’s Office, and the burgers and the sweet potato fries. Oh yeah, and the wine list. I’ve only been to the one in Santa Monica tho, glad to know about Culver City.

That beer is freakin’ killing me! I don’t even drink a lot of beer, but for some reason pregnancy has made it irresistible. I’m allowed to have a little, but not a big frosty delicious glass like that, damn you! I like the busy socks. They may not highlight all of the nuances of the pattern, but they are very, very pretty. Success!
