Public service announcement and watermelons?

 For those of you who have an Instagram account,  this is something you should be aware of and probably will want to deal with.  Be safe!


Over the weekend I put the finishing stitches on these socks.  They're in the watermelon colourway by Premier yarns.  Our #1 son likes funky socks so guess who is getting these for Christmas!



- HERE is a technique you might like to try.

- THIS is another awwww-thing.

- I can think of a few people who would get a kick out of one of THESE.

- I'm not normally a huge fan of crocheted garments, but THIS one caught my fancy.

Today your quote is from Erasmus..."The less talent they have, the more pride, vanity and arrogance they have.  All these fools, however, find other fools who applaud them"

    The socks are fun. He'll love them. About ig or any other Z owned entity, I think the best move is to close the account.

      I've never succumbed to Instagram but thought some people might find that information useful. As for the socks, I think he'll like them.

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
