More Socks

One finished baby sock. It's intended for a friend's baby's birthday present in mid December. Obviously, it's the same yarn as my Jaywalker. I'm just using the leftovers. However, I'm not sure that I have enough yarn for the second sock. I guess we'll find that out soon since I've just started on the heel flap. Looks like it's going to be close...

Next Best Thing...

it's too cold to take him outside...

Smurfday!

made this cake for my cousin from wilton cake pan circa 1983!

(Almost) Instant Socks.

The smaller the socks, the faster they knit up. I like that. No recipient for these for now, as all the babies I know are bigger than 0-3m. Haha. We are hoping to start a family soon, so perhaps I'll just collect these for laters.

Pattern: Heel and Toe socks from 50 Baby Booties to Knit
Yarn: Socks that Rock - I forget which colorway
Started: About September 28, 2006
Finished: November 6, 2006

Notes: I mentioned in an earlier post that I ripped out the first sock because, stupid me, forgot the heel flap. No wonder it looked funny to me. But it's all good now. =)

Rustic

Last week I got a pasta roller machine thing. So tonight, I got the chance to make my own pasta. I just used the basic pasta recipe that came with the machine roller. The pasta totally tasted homemade. And that's not a bad thing! It was quite a bit of work, but I'd have to say, it was definitely worth it! TASTY!

Homemade fetticine with scratch alfredo sauce (just cream, parm cheese, and margerine) and mixed greens. Almond Jello with fruit cocktail for dessert. DELICIOUS!
