A Tough Week




Another batch of socks ready to send to SFS, two pair leisure socks and one pair BBS. I had a tough week flying out to visit my sister who had been removed from a bad home situation by her angel friend Betty. She is doing fine and I had lots of time to start my first pair of JGS.
I cast on the day I left, knit in the airport, on the plane, in the motel, again in the airport, plane, train and bus and finished the first sock the day I arrived back home.
Then discovered a bit of bright news in the form of an award for the 58 pair of socks I have made since I joined SFS. Gave me a boost and got me up and casting on the second green sock.


Found a lot of sad news of soldiers injured and of Matt Maupin's remains positively identified. My prayers go out to their families and my fingers fly to help those still in service.
