The Other Side of Midnight

I stayed up too late and got up too early, but last night I managed another inch and a half on the sock from hell, a bit on some slippers, and cast on my Santa fair entry.

I'm using a Jean Greenhowe pattern that's in Knitted Toys for Santa and will adapt the Cinderella pattern to make Mrs. Claus. There's a cute snowman in the same book so if I get bogged down (as I have for the last two fair seasons) on a cabled version, this one looks fairly quick. The embellishments will be what makes Mr. and Mrs. unique.

Socks. What can I say? I'd hate to scare off my readers, so I'll just say that I did this to myself.

Socks are not hard. This pattern is tedious. And the needles are small. And the yarn is fine. But, in general, socks are not hard.
