*Showing just exactly how travelled in geekdom I am* Ron's Mum, Mrs Weasley does not make bad sweaters, she just thinks Ron suits maroon (he has red hair) which he doesn't.

Posted by Cindy at December 6, 2004 01:37 PMSandy's sock knitting does that to me too.
And thanks to Harlot, I'm dreamiing of latvian mittens.

Posted by kerrie at December 7, 2004 03:49 AMI have been thinking about this since yesterday when I read this post. I find it highly sexy that a man reads. I can not get Bob to read a book , if he only knew maybe he would fake it. : )

I have become as obsessed as you with socks. It's all I want to knit lately....well, that and the Sea Ivory wool.
Posted by Annie at December 7, 2004 05:22 PMWow those socks are lovely! I can't imagine making them knee high though!

Posted by Norma at December 9, 2004 06:58 PMI agree with Norma...I got slightly tired of them also. I read two of them to Ben and said that it read them yourself.
