Final Finish of 2014~

Thanks to the Engineering Wife,

who so kindly took out my 

messed up stitches,

I finished up my 

second pair of adult socks!!

They were my final finish in 2014..

of anything ;)

But I have been wearing them a lot

and they are holding up well.

Much of 2015 has been BeLoW zero...yep, for real.

The Pilot Man offered to buy me new socks,

because I am a wee bit slow

with the knitting needles.

But, I think he misses the point.

These are a bit of an experiment,

but I love having socks that fit my funny feet..

and keep them warm!

Details:

Supersocke 100

100 Gram/ 420 Meter

2014, A Lovely Year of Finishes~

Thanks for the encouragement, everyone!

It helped to keep me focused and finishing projects!

These were Lovely Year of Finishes that I posted about:

1) Intention  January

2) Lens Bag  February

3)  Explore  March

4)  Presence   April

5) My red/white and aqua piece  May

6)  Sew-Together Bag  June

7) Fireweed Travel Bag  August

8)  Grand Canyon Suite  October

9)  Ribbon Star Color Adventure  December

They may not have been huge, but they were done!

I did set my goal,  then finished this stocking in November.

Just didn't work to post

.

 I was lucky enough to deliver it to a

special little guy.

I think it was worth being away from the computer 

to be able to see the family!

I didn't even attempt a goal in September after looking at

our trusty calendar.

And there was also one failure ..to..complete :(

in July, but I ended up finishing other projects,

so I can live with that!

It has been a filled year for us all.
