My goodness, socks for a five-year-old fly. I’m making Audrey socks out of Chormatic Yarns in the colorway Operation Social Justice (Insert Class Here). The yarn has sparkles, which you can’t really see in this picture, so you will just have to trust me. Audrey picked the blue as the accent. I am knitting 56 stitches on a size 1 needle. I’m knitting for 4 3/4 inches before I start the toe. I’m telling you this so when I get to the foot of the next sock I’ll be able to look it up. I have this yarn without sparkles to make socks for Elliot. I tried to get him to go for sparkles, but he didn’t want them.
I did a bit more stash enhancement this week. My sister liked my Gothic Rainbow socks and she requested a pair, so I bought the yarn to make her some. I also grabbed a skein for John, as he also liked the socks a lot. I picked up the middle skein to reward myself for buying yarn to make other people socks.
How are your socks coming along?

I took 8 years off from socks. Sometimes you just need a break from them.

I’m trying to figure out how you get yarn so quickly I have ordered yarn from England I have ordered yarn from Joann fabrics, I tried ordering yarn from several trusted sites. I still have no yarn. I’ve gone days without knitting because I don’t have yarn to make anything useful. Actually I ordered a lot of acrylic yarn (ugh) from Joann fabrics For my sons first baby. Blankets. They need to be able to throw them in the washer they live up in the mountains. I’ll probably get all the yarn after everything is over. Eyeroll, lol
