Today, while Grant was trying to catch up on some sleep during the day, I was tip toeing and quietly amusing myself. After channel surfing through 300 channels I remember I had a sock that just needed the toe grafted and it was done. Not a pair mind you, just the first part of a "pair" of socks. I got the pattern from the More Sensational Knitted Socks book by Charlene Schurch.
Of course as soon as the toe was closed I HAD to show somebody....and the only body that was near was Grant....so it stands to reason that I had to wake him to show him my new sparkling sock!
Me: "Hey look, I just finished a sock!"
Supportive Husband Grant (with eyes half open): "Very Nice"
Supportive Husband Grant (looking at the clock): "I like that Glitter Sh*t in the yarn."
Me: "ummm, I don't think that "glitter" and "sh*t" works in the same sentence dear".
Husband Grant (noticing the pattern makes them thicker than most socks): "They look like they would be good Hunting Socks".
Me (thinking WTH?): "HUNTING SOCKS!!? ARE YOU KIDDING?"
I walked away shaking my head thinking it must be an Australian thing or a tired man thing, probably just a man thing!
Admiring the sock I decided to try it on.....
You can just see the hint of glitter, but it's there, REALLY!
You can not NOT smile when you foot looks THIS good!!!
Now, I just need to make another one!!
