Priscilla’s Dream Socks<\/em> (Priscilla Gibson-Roberts) knitted in Dream in Color Smooshy<\/em> in Blue Lagoon<\/p>\n

It came to me in a blinding flash yesterday. The socks that I’ve been diddling around with for a couple of days inbetween all the other things going on, need to be finished and on the west coast of Canada in a little under three weeks.<\/p>\n

splutter…..and as the Swiss and Germans would say ‘wie bitte?’ – which loosely translates as ‘how in a month of Sundays do you think that’s realistically going to happen?’<\/p>\n

OK, I know my SIL wouldn’t know if something else arrived for her birthday, but somehow these very socks are lodged very firmly in my mind as HER BIRTHDAY PRESENT, so I feel morally obliged to give it a go. Actually I think I may have even theoretically planned them for last year and ended up pushing them to now. It’s time folks, it really is…<\/p>\n

Are you with me?<\/p>\n

Here goes (drum roll)…<\/p>\n

I’ll keep you posted.<\/p>\n
