We had about 1/2″ of snow when I awoke this morning. So no rush in getting around. I finished these Br0nwynn’s Mock Cable socks. They were made with Paton’s Fireside 5 ply 100% wool, which is why the nylon reinforced heel and toe and on size 3 needles which made them go faster. That means I
actually finished February socks in February! I did find the free pattern in Ravelry. It won’t let me copy and paste the page address so just look for Bronwynn’s Mock Cable Socks by Shawn Morris. . I didn’t realize the name was not the name of the creator. So any of you interested can get it there.
Then I finished setting up Quicken for all our accounts. I used to keep it up to date, but DH took over paying the bills and doesn’t like to bother. So the compromise is I take care of Quicken and he pays the bills. It makes it so much easier when you have to pull numbers together for a project or for taxes.
Thanks for sharing that sock pattern! I’ve added it to my library.
I hear you about the bill-paying and bookkeeping – it’s an issue here too…
AND, I’m still waiting for snow – we’ve been setting record high temps here for the past 3 days – it should be around 28°F, and it’s actually been around 62°F! The buds on our trees are ready to open, and spring plants are popping through the ground. It’s supposed to be colder this weekend, but we still only have a slight chance of snow mixed with rain.

well done on the socks!
Very nice! Great idea to reinforce the heels.
Love your socks. Thanks for the info of the pattern. I’ve printed a copy for my future knitting.
