Did you know I'm funny?

Yeah, I have my doubts, too, but whatever.

Regarding the wheel:

I emailed the girlie at Kromski and after a misunderstanding, we're all sorted now.  She has mailed a new upright to me.  In theory, I'll be a spinner again soon-ish.  Although, I still want an espinner...

Look!  Man socks!

Trekking XXL sock yarn.  2x2 rib, magic looped, toe-up with CCSRs and a sewn bind off.

Nothing exciting but that's okay.  I'm not sure I like the idea of exciting socks.  They are a bit scrunched on the blockers because the blockers aren't really big enough for man socks.  Need to add bigger blockers to the shopping list.

Did I tell all y'all that I'm working on a Box of Sox project for my best guy friend?  Because I am and that means it's all socks all the time over here.  This and my wheel issues are a big part of why I'm struggling with the blogging.  Oh, and the head full of allergies that are trying to kill me.  I think it's the fall air and smoke combo that's getting me.  I don't remember last year being this bad.  Then again, last year was bad for other reasons.

I knew you were funny, but I promised not to tell. Oh... Ooops...

[Liz]

I knew you were funny and I told everyone!

Of course you're funny! Why do you think I hang around? ;-)

You're very funny. I didn't realize this was news.

Allergies are bad right now. I'm usually able to discontinue meds by October, but not this year. Of course I have a frost to look forward to.

You could just post a picture a day. I think I'm cleaning out a fish tank this weekend. Ugh.

Yay! Man socks! Glad the yarn worked out, even if it isn't all that bright.

I think you were a wee bit distracted last year.

Great socks and pretty sky picture!
My question is how big is the box that you have to fill with socks?
Hope it rains or freezes or whatever is needed to change things for your allergies.

I love Marilyn's comment! He's a lucky guy! And yes, here's to clearing the air. Happy Friday my friend.

Of course we know you're funny.

Man socks fun, but what is a "box of socks". Meaning is it something other than several pairs of hand knit socks.

Sorry to hear that the allergies are trying to kill you. Good luck.

Yay! I'm glad you are getting things back as they should be with your wheel. Do you know which espinner you want? Do they all have those WoolieWinder style flyers, or is that an extra? It seems like something one would find even more useful on an espinner. Then again, I do not know much about them, so probably don't listen to me. I hope you get what you want.

I think making the box of socks is exciting. How big of a pair of blockers do you need? I hope the wheel and the socks is all that gives you blogging troubles, and the allergies and smoke clear away for you. xoxo

Smokey skies make for spectacular sunsets. So there is that. Hope your breathing gets better SOON.
