Another Christmas pressie down! Finished Grandma's cotton socks, partially thanks to
thepinksheep. I got most of the foot done while chatting to her last night. It was fun! Must do that again, yes?. I have to mention here that William was being an absolute doll while Mommy was on the phone. He gurgled a lot in the background, and fussed just a bit, but otherwise was as good as gold. *pinches Williams cheeks* Oh he's so going to hate me when he gets older! Anyway, the socks are done. The pics are pre-washing, so they still look a bit wonky. I need to get a plastic foot or something to model my socks. It's impossible to get a good pic while wearing them, especially when you cannot bend your knee

. Just for the record, the colour is truer in the upper picture. For some reason it all went blue when I got closer to it. Probably just the cheap camera.
I also got my new needles, so I can work on several pair at one time. I've restarted the Jaywalkers and will need to start a new pair of normal socks this week before I make any phone calls. Knitting during physio is not really possible since I've moved on to ultrasound therapy and I do that myself. I can still get a bit done while I've got the electric thingy hooked up, but not much.
Speaking of knees, I think I might have re-injured it a bit on the bike at physio today. It hurts and the joint has more fluid in it again. I can't bend it as much as I could yesterday.
I think I'm going t continue to float along on socks for the moment and see if inspiration hits at some point. I might come up with something I don't need new yarn for. Maybe.
BWAHAHAHA! Love the dedication. After i realized how long we were on the phone for, I was shocked at how well behaved William was! And yes, must do again.
