\nThe toe is different to any I’ve done before. It’s a “star” style tow, with a pointed finish. I wasn’t sure I’d like it, but now that it’s done, I do like it. And no kitchener!
\nSo I started sock number 2, and when I was half way through the beads, I realised that I had botched the bead pattern in sock number 1. I had wondered why I had so many beads left on the yarn!

\nThey awarded me “Knitting Wonder from Down Under”!
\nI am thrilled! I feel like I won an Oscar, ROTFL. What wonderful company to be keeping, too! Some seriously great blogs have been nominated. Thanks Jen and La! I may wear one of Em’s tiaras around all day tomorrow \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
