I said these socks probably won’t go to fast, despite being shorties…

And they aren’t. That’s partly because after I finished the heel and gusset, I noticed a big boo boo on the leg and had to frog all the way back! It’s also because life is just keeping my crazy busy – and not just at the new house. It’s busy in all aspects.
I was hoping to have a chunk of time to knit on it yesterday morning, both Dave and I had dentist appointments (one after the other). But…. halfway to the dentist, Dory started making some strange growly/grinding noises. So we turned around and went to the mechanic instead. She’s getting new struts and a wheel bearing and our teeth (and waiting room knitting) will just have to wait. We need her to get back and forth the new place!
So all of this is a long way of saying… I’m still working on the first sock. Maybe I’ll finish it this week. Maybe not.
It’s a beautiful sock and it just means you get to knit on it longer! I’m the same way. Not getting a lot of knitting/crochet done because of the move, but that will come. I finally finished a baby blanket yesterday. I’m glad you were able to get to the mechanic before anything really bad happened. Car stuff is never fun.
Blessings,
Betsy

When a vehicle makes grinding noises, it’s time to take action. I’m glad it’s something that can easily be repaired. Love the sock!

Ugh! Glad you didn’t get stranded somewhere.

Nope, grinding noises from one’s mode of transport is too awful!

Ugh! Car problems are no fun. Hope she gets fixed up quickly.

Oh, my….I am not sure which is worse-car troubles or the dentist. Both are too expensive and scary.
