I'm pleased you like your hand knitted socks, I could never stop knitting socks now, I just don't think shop bought socks are as warm or cosy. Sunny days and blue skies are few and far between here at the moment, we had snow the other day. Sticky toffee pudding teacakes?

I sort of enjoy winter as our severe heat days are so draining, but understand when it is grey days on end. Seems like we are never happy, but I do try & make the most of any decent days when they come along. Love your socks & got a freebie on Sunday of 2 balls of sock wool, a pattern & a new fangled circular needle, so will try hard to make some when time allows. I really owe you an email or phone call soon.
