the chance, the once in a million, lifetime, etc. that the moment you are missing the socks you knit for your pal, sniff... you know suffering separation anxiety when you see them on her feet...
You open the box that the PO wanted to keep for itself and see these!!!
Ahhhhh...for a minute, I thought she sent the ones I knit her back to me! But nope! They are my very own pair in Fleece Artist 100% superwash merino in Ruby Red, my birthstone colorway! Sigh....I love them, they are perfect and fit perfectly and now I don't have to knit my own Embossed Leaves!!! Yay!
This picture does show the colorway better I think. I quit after 20+ pictures to get the right color. You know how temperamental reds can be!
Here they are posing with the other goodies! I love my bag too! Just what I needed, another one, (you all know I hate sewing for myself LOL!) and some Jelly Belly's, cool stitchmarkers and yarrrrn! Ahh!
Thanks for a great sock swap!! Sorry the PO gave you a fright by not giving me my darned package last nite!
