Wonderful stuff!!!!!!! Wendy

Georgia, What a great sight!! Hugs & God bless, Dennis & Gail

Well done - I love those socks! :-)

I'm getting used to them. I expect the next pair will be pretty colorful too, because there's a lot of leftover yarn that will go into them. Mixing self striping yars is even more fun than just knitting them.

I only have one FO for May:

A pair of felted slippers for me done with the Fibertrends clogs pattern.

had tried to make these in the past, but used wool that didn't shrink upenough. This time I tried 3 ply White Buffalo yarn in a soft steelyblue/grey. Worked like a charm. Since wearing them, they seem to havestretched or loosened up some, so I think I'll throw them back in the washerto shrink them a little bit more. ;>) I'm working on a pair of socks from a pattern called Hawaiian Leis, and am having a terrible time with the pattern. I had to sort it out for the first sock, and now have forgotten what I did. I should have written it down. Now I have to figure it out all over again. Bah!

I'm very impressed! I tried felting some mittens once, concluded it took more experimentation and engineering than I had patience for.

Those look wonderful Shelagh. I'll bet they're comfy and warm.

The nicest thing is they're very soft, and yes, nice and warm. ;>)

Thank you! I love the end result (when it goes as planned). I have a tote I tried, and didn't turn out well, but I can still use it to store yarn.

Now, if only I could figure out that stupid sock pattern. Grrrr
