Since the weekend

Here is what we've been up to since the weekend ::

Still working on the second sock of my second pair of wool socks. I love this self-pattern yarn. I love it so much I went and bought another ball in shades of blue to start my third pair as soon as I finish these.

Trees on a property are so beautiful and peaceful but each Spring we have to pick a zillion little twigs; I call it ''pick-up sticks''.

Over-wintered leeks.

I'm happier than usual this week - my seed order arrived.

Enjoying putting clothes on the line to dry.

And yes, the socks are finished !!!!! Time to cast-on for the next pair.

Hi Vickie ~ Looks like you've been busy. Your socks are beautiful , love the colors.
We need to play " Pick-up Sticks " too , after the last snowfall we had a lot of broken limbs. Maybe I should make a game of it and have the Grands play " Pick-up Sticks " (LOL).

I'm so glad it's almost garden time , we boxed in the beds by Jeff's garage this week. I've been reading about a garden bed method I plan to try with one of the beds. I plan to blog about the method tomorrow hopefully.

~ Almost Spring Blessings ~

Those socks are swesome! I'm amazed that the yarn does that. Magic, I swear. :) We've had clothes on the line every sunny day, too, and played 'pick up sticks' yesterday and again today! :)
