Celebratory socks


Last Christmas I successfully knitted Brett a pair of socks completely in secret i.e. without him knowing. They took me a couple of weeks to make and then I decided to use the leftovers to knit a tiny pair of matching socks for the impending baby. It was a real Hallmark moment when he opened the present and realised that he not only had a lovingly hand crafted pair of socks for himself but that the little one had a little matching pair so that they could be just like daddy.

Florence came home from hospital this week... YAY!!!! And so this morning we celebrated with matching socks.

  6. I've just read your column in the last issue of Knitting and I had to check your blog to see if there was any news about little Flo. Such a relief to read she's home from hospital!

    My husband and I hope things will get better from now on for your family. We are thinking about you.
